Yep. I set for +1" @ 100yds. This will put my rifle dead on at 200 and -1" at 300. Good for almost anything I want to shoot at. Also the heart is low in the chest just behind the front shoulder. I don't like to shoot the shoulder because it wastes meat. Bloodshot meat is no good. My last elk yielded 80 (3-4 per)packages of steaks and 30 (1lb) packages of burger. I did all the processing myself and put everything to steak or burger. I an not big on roasts when I can eat steak.
