What is the best range and zero for the following setup.

Bushmaster M4 with 16inch barrel
ARMS #46
Aimpoint M2
ARMS #40 BUIS 300 meter sight.

I'm looking for info on what range and zero to sight in my rifle with the aimpoint and BUIS. Does anyone know how the military sights in their M4 with the KAC setup and Aimpoint.

This site have a welath of information on AR weapon system.  The section I link you to is on zeroing method, it is just an example of the answers you will be able to find there.

I prefer the 50 yard sight in, it will give you the best flight path for your set up.

Hope this helps.

My setup:
Bushmaster M4 14.5"
Aimpoint ML2 w/ ARMS #22M68
ARMS #40

Sighted in 50 meters last weekend. Didn´t have difficulties to hit 5" plates set up between 50- 150 meters(didn´t have time to test beyond). I´m satisfied except #40. I had to screw to FSP all the way up and it still kept shooting up. Where can I get those taller FSPs?

Thanks in advance,
MN
