I think a lot of people completely missed the point of this experiment, including both supportive and critical posters.
Changing the title away from “headshots with red dots” might help. “How dot size in RDS optics effects aiming precision at small targets” might be easier to rapidly digest. |

How does shooting a simulated distance target at 50 yards account for bullet drop?
Never mind it was addressed already. But it would be a better test if shooting at actual distances. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: How does shooting a simulated distance target at 50 yards account for bullet drop? From the first post of this thread . . . Quoted: The testing was conducted at 50 yards in order to mitigate the variable of wind-drift that would have been significant if testing had been conducted at actual distances and to remove the vertical variation of the points of impact that would have occurred due to bullet drop at actual distances. The objective here was to determine what the limitation on accuracy was, due to aiming with the various red-dot sights, not how well I could dope the wind and distance. Each optic was zeroed for POA=POI at 50 yards prior to testing using 10-shot groups. .... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Exactly. It’s all about how consistently you index whatever sight you have. Indeed.  The 10-shot group pictured below was fired from a distance of 100 yards using Ultradyne back-up iron sights. The group has an extreme spread of 0.71".  ... |
