You will need to make less adjustment the further away you are but the error reported will be less as well.
What you may run into is a lack of resolution to adjust the servo accurately. That's why I mentioned using microseconds instead of degrees. ie. (~ 1000 vs. ~180)
Yes resolution would fix that but how would you do that? Also if it's a 180 servo how would you account for it being greater then 180 degrees
