RE: Sighting in new scope
Leupold are all I use now for rings and mounts, yet to let me down. Sight in to be 2" high at 100 and you should be dead on at 200, this will allow you to hold tight 0-250. I agree it is always the best to shoot the distances related to your hunting situation, don' t take anything for granted. Also if shooting off a bench sandbags are cheap/good rifle rest.
