OP asked this:



My point was, if you're NOT dead on at 100 yards, at longer distances the difference between where you're aiming and where the bullet will hit grows.

Assuming perfect conditions, if you're 1" off at 100 yards, that will be a lot more than 1" difference between point of aim and where the bullet hits at 1000 yards.

What I was saying is, you need to be bang on the mark at 100 yards.

Is that not so?!?!
Technically you need to be bang on at whatever distance your zeroed at. But zero wont change much from 97yds to 104yds which was more what op was asking. But yes you are correct if your off by 1" @100 it will extrapolate to 10"@1000 all things being absolutely perfect otherwise.
