What range do you guys prefer to zero your iron sights at? What do you feel the most useful all-around zero for the AK is? What do you prefer and why?
AR15 100 yards because the sights are clearer and allow it. AKs 50-75 because the normal Ak sights are not a crisp and clear as an AR15. Just my 02. YMMV
I trust what the factory zero'd it at and run it at the "2" setting. Puts me 3" high at 100 yards and spot on at 200. Seems to work very well as an all-around setting for the rifle. This is with a 7.62x39 version. YMMV

The factory zero is helpful, but I suggest fine tuning the zero to the way you shoot.
That being said, I usually zero my AK's at 50 yards with the rear sight on "2".
