If you get on Remington's website, you can check the ballistics of their factory ammo. That may help you some. I have a ballistics calculator and most common rounds zeroed at 100 yards (50 yards will be so close its probably not worth worrying about compared to 100) will drop 2-4 inches at 200 yards and somewhere around 4-12 inches at 300 yards. Of course, like me, anyone on here can give you a set of numbers for you to use, but the only true answer will come from getting out on the range and sending many rounds downrange to find out exactly what your rifle, shooting that round, will do. There are always so many variables to figure in, like barrel length and caliber, bullet weight and velocity, uphill or downhill or on flat ground, even humidity and temp., so again the only real answer come from lots of shooting.

You have to know about ballistics of the round to tell, like how much drop does the bullet have in 100 yards. Different bullets, different trajectory. I always sight in 1" high at 30 yards and it is very close at 100 yards. At least you will be close enough to the target to zero at 100 yards.

It would depend on the caliber and the ammo. i would suggest that you sight it in for 100 yards and then try it at fifty and then what ever other distances you would like. Also check out check out your guns and bullets trajectory so you can estimate where you will need to shoot before you go

Sight it in at 450 yards, then use a center hold for 100 yards to 450 yards.* The only time you have to readjust your sight is for shots longer than 600 yards.*

What caliber? The 700 ADL comes in several different calibers. There's no way to answer correctly without knowing the caliber, and grain weight would help too.

Pretty much any common caliber if you zero it in 2 inches high at 100 yards you don't have to think about high high to hold and how low to hold at any distance. Just aim dead center of the deers chest and shoot. If you miss, hunt closer.
