OK, I aded a 3-9x42 scope to my AR15, A1 upper, and I sighted in in at the local indoor range, which is only 25 yards.
I know that one of the newer zero'ing methods is the 50/200 yard method, where you zero at 50 yards instead of meters, and that puts you dead on at 200 yards, and 2" low at 250 yards.
At 25 yards, off a bench, I was getting 5 shot groups about .35" groups, not center to center, but edge to edge at the widest point. The group was 3/8" above point of aim, at 25 yards.
How do I calculate where it would be at 50 yards, so that I can dial it in? It is 1/4/MOA clicks, so 4 clicks would be 1" at 100 yards, meaning that 4 clicks at 25 yards would be .25", do I have this right?
Now, where SHOULD it be hitting at 25 yards, to be zero'd at 50 yards, and am I correct in assuming that I can just dial it in according to what you tell me, and I should be within a click or two at 50/200 yards?
I read some of the recommended methods on some of the AR15 info pages posted throughout this forum, but there are several different methods, and I am not sure which one I matches what I am trying to do.
Help!
please. ;-)
