  1. Awesome video Brian. As always, excellent breakdown and explanation of your knowledge and experience. Like TG said, would be great to see you talk about different ranges and ballistics common zeroing distances.
    Stay well man – hope to catch up soon…

  2. As always, Brian does an outstanding job of explaining how to get the most precise and accurate zero for your maximized performance.
    Brian, care to share your expert insight on the pros and cons of different zero ranges: 100 vs 200 vs 300 etc. and when are times you’d want to consider each of those or others?
    Great video!

  3. Excellent. That 300 yard example… smaller target next time.. (-:
    And also, maybe for another video, why doing 100 is so important due to flattest part of trajectory.
    Well done! I've shared it wide and far and I hope others do as well.

  4. Nice, detailed guide and improves rifle shooting overall. One for handgun irons with different holds next, please.
    EDIT: Is there an added benefit of a closed dust cover on the first round?
