I have a time trying to understand the knob on the left rises and lowers the dot ,and the knob on the right turns it Left or Right? Can some one give me some advice on it and what distance to most people sight-in their Aimpoint ML3 , it is on a new all 16''LMT M4. Shoud I go 50 yards or 25 meters=27.33yards

Depends on how you aligned your Aimpoint in the mount. It can go either way.

For sure you should be zeroing at 50y. It's minute of beer-can from muzzle out to 225y.

I have an emailable SOPMOD target for the Aimpoint that has a circle for POI about an inch below the POA, so you can still achieve a 50m zero while sighting in at 25m, just print it on standard printer paper. If you want to try one just shoot me an email [email protected]

Or you can send it to me, and I'll post it so its a downloadable item.

Rick,
I'd be interested in seeing that target, I developed similar targets and I'd like to see how they compare.

The Maryland AR15 shooter's group has some of the best targets for zeroing available. They are an MSN group that you can sign up for and then download... Highly recommend.

I HEAR THAT!!!

thanks to FOREST and Chuck for telling me all about it!

My range is 200 yards and at the BERM I think is 20 or so more yards! 220 easy

with the 50 yard zero I can hit TIN CANS easy

BTW I find it easy to shoots the soup cans since they reflect the light better than beer cans

Yep. But not as fun in making the target.
