What is the best zero distance at which you should calibrate a red dot?Most people say 10 to 15 yards for concealed and 25 for range shooting.
>>64324828I do 30 yards because thats what I can do in my parents basement.
>>64324828Nobody says 10 or 15 for any type of gun, unless you have some gay ass indoor range that doesn't go further. NOBODY says to zero at 10 or 15 yards if 25 is possible.
>>64324828What caliber? Big fucking difference if we're talking a pistol vs. an AR

>>64324828Your own pic related makes the correct choice obvious.
>>64325740Zero that bitch at 25 yards if at all possible.Less spread at useable ranges and it even lets you attempt shooting your pistol out to 50 yards reasonably.Depends on your use case but I think the 25 yard zero is the best to get the spread in a reasonable place that everything from 7-25 yards is in a ~5" area.
>>64324828Hey brother, #1 thanks for your patronage!So to give you the skinny, we actually work with a lot of shooters, one is a high-level trainer, industry tester, and supreme unrivaled badass.He zeroes at 15 yards, but he likes the cards and understands shooting farther will cause vertical shift. The same can be said for 25 yards, but for various reasons I won't get into it's better when going further out and similar to 15 yards when shooting closer.If you know what your doing, zero wherever you want. If you understand the vertical shift, feel free to zero closer. If you need the card for help, we ask you zero as close to 25 yards as possible, if that's 20 or 15, then OK. The most important thing is understanding the info on the card and it gives good info, it's quick and easy to understand, and it informs you that if you do zero closer basically what the difference is on shot placement.Now that you have read the card, zero wherever the hell you want!If you have any questions about this I would be happy to address them but this is the short version.-"Cyeleeguy"
>>64328453I'm thinking about the ct2 for conceal carry, what you recommend?
>>64324828depends on your height over bore. for pistol 25yd zero is good for the reason shown in your attached image. for a stacked red dot with a 5" height over bore i do a 75yd zero because then I am within 1.5 inches from 50-200 and i just deal with the holdover on closer stuff.
>>64328659CT2 just werks brother, just werksI personally go with the Wolf SRS6 PRO, insanely bright, nice 6 MOA you can find easily and a bit more rugged, lockout, passed droptests optics like 507C failed, and looks nicebut for carry like 90% of users would have similar experience between the two
>>64328714Ok cool bins. I check it out.
