See, I keep a 100 yard zero and nailed the hog just fine. The reason why I don't like a 200 yard zero is because few of my shots are at 200 yards. Why zero for a distance you don't shoot the most? Ben's problem was too heavy of a bullet for too little velocity, resulting in too much drop.
Here is a .308 zeroed at 200 and a shot at 80-85 yards. It was going to be a head shot, but if you don't compensate, the shot goes high. I don't like having to correct for two directions based on distance.
Now, had Ben had a 200 yard zero, he would have been needing to hold 2.5-3" low for most of his other shots that night. He should have only needed to correct for the 210 yard hog and the 40 yard hog instead of all the other shots.
