Am I doing something wrong? 33" drop at 200 for the 220 SMK .300 vs. 48 inch drop for the .22LR?

Use a 50yrd zero for the 220 SMK and they will be very close.

Ah, gotcha. That would work out great, then, as the center of the reticle on the PF scope is for 50 yards as well.

Hmm, this would mean if I wanted to I could swap the scope back and forth between a .22 rifle and the .300 and they'd be pretty much spot on with no adjustments. Sweet!

That would come in handy on my Pocket Rifle.
