Bill pretty much covered it.  By "point blank" it means that anything under the "point blank" range you don't have to "hold off" high or low.  You just aim at the center of the kill zone and your bullet will hit a little high or low, but not more than the size of the kill zone.  He uses almost the exact point blank sighting for his .223 that I do.  I'm sighted in at 1.25 inches high at 100 yds which gives me a point blank range for coyotes at about 225 yds.  I mostly shoot the 52 gr. MHP or the 50 gr. TNT.  your bullets velocity and ballistics coeficient will of course affect this tradjectory.  The size of the kill zone of your quarry will also determine what your point blank range is.  Anything further away than your point blank range you will have to hold over accordingly.
