Im kinda lost in the sauce here. I just purchased a Stribog and realized this is an up close and personal weapon. Somewhere around 14'-35' seems ideal even if the weapon can go further. Reach was never this firearms intended use. Please check my fire. |

For your Striborg, a 5 yd. zero (14' +) will put you about 27" high at 85 yards with an RDS. (Hornady 115.gr. FTX used for example)
A 50 yd. zero will give about a 2-1/2" total ballistic arch out to 85 yds. Go here and play with the numbers. A Striborg is not a carbine (PCC). The ones I see in Google have an 8" barrel. |

I prefer farther out (like 25 yards) for pistols and PCC. that way you know you're always just a bit low. Much easier than being spot on at 10 feet and then like 2 feet high at 25 yards.
I also prefer a 200 yard AR zero for the same reasons, I'm always hitting low. |

And decide what ammo you'll be using so you can plug into the calculator.

Playing with the ballistics tool I think I may switch to 30 yards. I like the flatter trajectory out to 80 yards.
30 yard zero 9mm ball ammo |

25 yards. That should give you 2” low at 15, 2” high at 50, back to zero at 75, 2” low at 100.

I shoot my carbine a lot at my home range which is 10-50 yards, mostly I shoot off hand at 40 yards so I zero there.
The chart using 147 gn shows me -3 at muzzle, zero at 30 and 40, -3 at 70. http://www.shooterscalculator.com/ballistic-trajectory-chart.php?t=7676dfa5 |

Quote HistoryQuoted: My PPC in 9mm will put a damn big hole in you are 75 feet. I zeroed it at 15 yards and then tested it at 25 yards and had to move around the target to see where I was hitting. Sig Romeo 5 on top of it. Thats is what I do. |

All great info. Thank you very much. I will experiment with the 25yd & 30yd zero and see which works best for me.
Also for clarification, the Stribog is a braced pistol not a PCC or a PDW? |

10 yards. Try it I did zero my weapon and kept rethinking the minutiae. My zero is tight for now but I only had 50 feet to work with but 10 yards worked. My frame of thought came down to small window targets 6"x6" at varying distances at or under 60 feet under pressure. A contributing factor for me is a reticle having 32MOA Circle 2 MOA dot for holdover a close distances to make things more distinguishing. |

10 yards will keep the trajectory fairly flat out to 25 or so. I think you'll be good. |

My 9 mm PCC (Ruger carbine with the M Loc hand guard) is just a fun gun to shoot, so it is zeroed at 50' with a Burris Fast Fire III. If I need or want to reach out further, I have other guns for that!
