I've read the maryland zeroing section and am wondering what the concensious is.  For a 300 meter range the Army/Marine zeroing method seems to be the best.  

In the real world 100% of my shooting will be 100 yards or less, so I am going to give the IBSZ a try (50 yards) that is supposed to give a 50/200 yard zero with a respectable performance from 8-220 yards(<2" from point of aim).

Setting the sights to 25/300 meters seems to give a very high impact in the 100 yard range.  Has anyone used the IBSZ (improved battle sight zero) technique?

i like ibsz.  flatest trajectory for the distances i shoot.  to me, a flatter trajectory minimizes the operator error, if you can hold the rifle steady, for 0 to 220 or so yards...

Zero at 50 is the way to go IMO.

I also use the Santos IBZ.  Works great for all ranges that I am likely to encounter in the civilian world. For greater ranges, just dial in the wheel - however I doubt I will be engaging meaningful targets at greater than 200 with a 14.5 inch barrel.

Are you seeing the very high impact when flip to larger aperture and rotate the wheel?

I zero at 50 yards and then re zero, adjusting for elevation dead on. for 100 yards. I have no trouble hitting 25-300 yard targets all day long.

 I was zeroed at 25 yards I zeroed according to bushy, and 100 was high.

I just shoot from the hip like a Jihad until I hit what I'm aiming for.

nice graph.  Looks like a 50 yard sight will work fine

Three shots fired from the hip at 25 yards.

If you've ever qualified in the military at a 50-300 meter range you know that you need to aim towards the bottom of your target at 150 meters.  The closer you get to 150 the lower you aim and then as you approach 300 you raise it up to center mass.

Try this, you will need some info to plug in for your results....www.norma.cc/htm_files/javapagee.htm

I like the 50 yard zero.
