I'm planning on trying to shoot some deer from high on a Missouri River bluff. I used my range finder today and the deer will be 350 to 450 yards away. I'll be up pretty high as well. I'm going to zero my 300 Win Mag rifle at 6 inches above bulls eye at 100 yards. That should zero me at 300 yards approx. I want to get some practice in for next season because I hope to hunt Elk and Mule Deer in Montana on a friend's property.
My question is: will I have to compensate for the height I'm shooting from?
