Default RE: Sighting in new shotgun scope.

Sight in at 50. Then check at 100, and also whatever you feel would be the longest shot you want to take. Adjust your 50 yd sight-in as needed to optimize your trajectory for your hunting situation.

Most slugs work out so 2-3" high at 50 is on, or up to 2-3" low at 100, depending on velocity.

If you are shooting newer sabots that run around 2000 fps, you may be able to stretch things a bit.
