90gr GMX for deer

[Bassfish1952]

It's fine to check zero at 50 or even 25, that's what I do after boresighting (you should get one of those things... very helpful and not expensive).  I have ~13 yds indoors so I bore sight  for ~1.5" low, then I know I am on paper.  Then work out from 25 to the 100 for final zero.

Footnote, the recoil kick is not real hard on the 6Arc (very minimal), instead of a lead sled I'd recommend a nice muzzle brake.  Takes all the muzzle flip out of the equation.  On a 24" the noise back to you will not be too bad (use hearing pro anyway!).
Get the VG 65 gamma, 6.5mm if you can find them - they are tops.  And a knurled jam nut,  or the accuwasher set.  Not crush washers they will screw up your bore performance.

Actually with a 24" you could probably skip the brake also, just have a front rest like the caldwell mini rock and a good sand bag/ rear sand rest for the butt stock.

Not much $$, but lots of value.  You can tell what kind of shooter I am, economics/value oriented.

But as to the question about 50 yds, ok for starters but you really want to take it to 100.

Thanks
I have an indoor range couple miles away that goes to 100yds. I'll do my basic work up there, No wind and a machine to return target after every shot if I want to . But it charges by the hr. and you can only do 1hr at a time depending on waiting line. Then move to an outdoor range 38 miles away that has 100yd and a 200yd along with a great snack bar   I took my Grandson there recently , Run by some really nice and safe people.
Not sure if they work but may try one of these , read about them but haven't worked up to one yet
