        <![CDATA[ Let's see who has the best way of setting up battle sight zero for a Garand. 
Include how many clicks from bottom should get you started at say 100 yards. 
How many clicks up are needed for each 100 yards thereafter?

Gonna stick this one up when it gets done so make it good. Ash Iron Construction ]]>
