I like how gun personalities pretend that 700 yards is impressive. Anything less than 1000 isn't worthy of note on a range. Against a real target like an animal or enemy combatant, yes. Against steel or paper, no.

If you live where there's trees it's very hard to find a range that long. Around me the public ranges are all 100yds or less (there are a couple 200 ones). The long ones are all private, like an hour out of town, and cost several hundred a year to be a member or you have to have access to crop land.

Most people, even ones who shot a lot, have never shot past 100yds.

Is my biggest issue doing competitions. I can do work with pistol and rifle under 50 yards, but they throw in a 200-300 yard section and I’m shooting wind while the clubs guys go smoothly.

Choose a good zero. You should not need to do anything but hold center mass out to 300 yards with an appropriate zero.

For example compare a 25 yd zero (common indoor range zero), to a 36 yd zero:

The 0-300 yd group for the 36 yd zero is all in the A-zone, while the 25 yd zero shoots high for most of that range.

There are targets you can download to zero a rifle for 36 yds at a 25 yd range.
