I have a Henry lever action in .22LR that I haven't fired in a number of years. I have a 4x scope on it, the gun has seen a couple of moves since last used, and I want to re-zero it.
The problem is, regardless of whether I want it zeroed for 50 yards or 100 yards, where I now live I don't have access to an outdoor range offering either distance. I shoot at an indoor range that has 25 yards, and allows .22LR rifles. So ...
First, for .22LR what's more often considered the optimum/customary distance? 50 yards or 100 yards?
For each, if I have to shoot at 25 yards should I be zeroing to group higher than the point of aim, or lower? I'm assuming higher. How much higher or lower?
Does anyone know how much a standard .22LR drops going from 25 yards to 50 yards, and from 50 yards to 100 yards?
TIA
