  1. F I N A L L Y ! An intelligent person has created with this video a quick, simple method of zeroing an instrument to a rifle without all the typical BULLSHIT lectures and footage. And all in less than 1 minute. THANK YOU !!

  2. This is an old school method and will get you on paper indeed. Aside from this I usually just get a big white poster board and draw a 1" diameter circle in the center of it. Put the cross hairs in the center of that circle and shoot.Where ever that bullet hole lands adjust your crosshairs over to the bullet hole.You should be pretty well dead on with your next shot. Must be done in a steady rest to get best results.Can be sighted in with 3 rounds maybe 4 after fine tuning. Me personally I zero my 223 at 50 or 100yrds. Red dots I use a 36yrd zero.
