You need a 200 yard zero to start with. Look this kind of drop is not new, both the 8x33 K and the 7.62x39 experience the same thing and was dealt with using iron sights. Hell look at the old Sharps 45-70, 45-110's, you don't see Quigley and the buffalo hunters whining "soooo much drop". Not talking about turnburglar but lots of spoiled internet brats using modern optics want to bad mouth a cartridge instead of learning to shoot it effectively within it's performance envelope.
