Actually, the gun will shoot low at both 50 yards and 200 yards with a 100 yard zero. 100 yards is pretty much the bullet apex on a .223/5.56, so anything up to that and beyond that will hit low. That's why I zero my rifles at 100yds. You only ever think about holdover for targets that are not 100 yards, never holdunder.
