The .270 is a flat shooting rifle. Are you hunting in open country or brush?
You can't really go wrong sighting the .270 in at 100 yards. If you were out in Wyoming or the Dakotas I would say 200 yards.
But here in the midwest (central MO) 100 is OK. At 100 yards, you will be an inch or so low at 200 yards.
Get a good solid rest. set up 100 yards back and fire 3 shots. draw a line to connect the three holes. Estimate the center. Adjust the scope accordingly. 1" low at 100 yards means 4 clicks up on most scopes.
If you are 3" low at 40 yards, you will be about 8" low at 100 and way off at 200.
