Fireant Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I zeroed mine for the longest shot in the set of stages. Without looking them up, I think it is 35 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxshooter Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Roger Thirty five yards is the longest target. Are you shooting at the center of the close plates with your 35 yard zero. My C-more is mounted about 3/8" higher than yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireant Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I am, a center hold on all targets gets me a good hit. I set up some plates at the different distances, painted them and check the POI for the different distances. With the 35 yard zero it is not far off at any distance in SC.

vrmn1 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 ZERO? AIM? What the hell are you guys talking about? I usually zero my 22 at 18 yards. The 10" middle plates on pendulum are at 18 yards. That way I can hold pretty much anywhere on those plates and hit them. The long shots are at 35 and they are BIG plates I can hold toward the top and hit them with no problem. Thats just me. I can tell you this. If, no wait WHEN I miss it is not because of where the gun is zeroed. It is because the jerk jerking the trigger didn't use his sights and/or didn't follow thru.

Bob DuBois Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Set zero at 25 yards and an indoor range last Tuesday, we'll see how it does next Saturday, weather permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbxdm9 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) My red dot is zero'd at 15 yards. Just shot a match last weekend - most shots were 20 yards or less. Some did reach out to 35 yards - just held top half of the plate. Didn't miss any shots >15 yards. Problem was going too fast and trigger control, not having the scope zero'd at the wrong distance.

40S&W Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) I zero at 25 yds. MOD 41 with 5.5" barrel. No problems at closer or 35 to 40 yds. I shoot CCI std. velocity 40 grain lead roundnose. Red dot is a 7 moa Aimpoint Comp XD. Edited March 24, 2011 by 40S&W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photoracer Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I zero at 25 yds. MOD 41 with 5.5" barrel. No problems at closer or 35 to 40 yds. I shoot CCI std. velocity 40 grain lead roundnose. Red dot is a 7 moa Aimpoint Comp XD. 25 yards on my Buckmark shooting CCI MM. Sometimes I have to adjust for our club matches due to using some pretty small targets at 15-20 yards plus for our bowling pin matches. In those cases I tweak the sights for about 15 yards but it is not a big adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansheex Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I sight in our pistols at 20 yards. I will bench rest them to make sure they are dead on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
