I went to zero my RPK with my 552 at my house, just with a laser sight tool at 100 yards which is the distance from my house to my barn. I maxed out the elevation all the way and it just barely made zero without forcing it further. Is it the side mount that is canted? Do I have a bad optic?

Is your laser sight tool alighted to your barrel? I've had those not be aligned well.

Its one of those ones by sightmark that has a magnetic base and a plastic spring loaded centering piece. I tried the same optic and laser bore sight on an ar and i wa able to zero at 100 with plenty of adjustment left so im assuming its the RPK. Maybe when they installed the side mount plate it isnt aligned right.

The laser will get you close/on paper. You may be in good shape once you get to the range.

Don’t put too much faith in those laser things.
