You have a rifle that you don't trust the zero on?!?!? My closest actual range has 25, 50, and 100 yard backstops, but somebody wrote 25, 50, and 84 on the benches, so I don't know if I can trust the range, without borrowing a rangefinder 
I'm still 2-4 weeks out on finishing my 26" DMR, pending optic purchase; I'm also buying a set of Meprolight AK night sights on Friday, so I'll have a couple rifles that will need to be confirmed/adjusted at a verified 100 yards. I may be able to get it figured out before the shoot, but that's provided the corn is out of the way at my best friend's farm before then

Zero your rifle at either 25 or 50 for a good Battle Sight Zero. It's explained in the Optics FAQ section. Quote HistoryQuoted:

FWIW, my Mosin @ 100m is more acurate than my eyes. Sorry about the crossbar, JC...
I was high 10" and left 2", but the grouping was pretty tight. Time to do the electrical insulation trick on my front sight. Dead nuts on @ 25m. Bowling pin didn't stand a chance. Made me feel good, that was the first round out of that rifle since the early days of the DDR. |
