    This is more understandable and practical then saying or explaining how to adjusting the levitation and horizontal and how many clicks are needed to zeroed the sight,thou it may be tactically important,its more understandable and easy

      I believe that might be at 7 yards or something like that when you’re holding on the bottom of the circle to compensate for height over bore but I’m not positive on how far he was himself

      The dot is actually staying in place, it's due to the movement of the reticle being so subtle that it just looks like that.

    • @robertwilson8184
      @robertwilson8184 Рік тому +3

      The dot of the bore sight is *perceived* to be moving because the adjustments on the EOTech are not moving the point of aim, but the point of impact.

      @seraph1926 Місяць тому

      To account for the mechanical offset at close range. At 7 yards to get poa/poi aim use the bottom of the reticle. Ex: you need to take a head shot in a short hallway. Don't use the center dot you'll hit low. Use the bottom hash mark. You'll also be in the ballpark for a 50/200 zero

    • @tundrabanks3647
      @tundrabanks3647 2 роки тому +3

      I believe on their website, they say 21 feet/7 yards.
      The middle dot in the reticle would be zeroed for 50/200 yards, and the 6 o’clock hash would be 7 yards, for a 14.5 inch AR shooting 556.
      Check your POI at the range whenever you go.

      Just zero it for whatever you want. I like the 36yd zero. Vigilance Elite has 25yd distance(all indoor ranges) POA/POI targets mathed out for ya for free download.

      @@05EVORS I agree with you, but for me, the best is 50 yd for their holographic. It’s what their reticle is designed for. I prefer the 2 dot, the lower dot is like a tweener from 7 to 25 yards, and 6 o’clock is perfect for very close contact. But however he zeroes, it should be consistent across all platforms if running multiple guns and/or uppers

      Because of bullet drop, lasers move in an infinite line forward and bullets curve up then down

    • @Sam9wilson9
      @Sam9wilson9 2 роки тому +22

      When we zero in at the 6:00 mark at 7 paces this makes center dot on target at 50 meters. After this is done we aim at objects at 7 paces from 6:00 mark and objects at 50 meters center dot. This is all due to the fact that the center of barrel and center of eotech will have to intersect at some point; in this example the intersection is at 50 meters.

      @@Sam9wilson9 Boresighting is not zeroing. The bore laser is showing where the bore is pointing to. The reddot is showing where the reddot is. There's something called an offset where the bore is not aligned to the reddot. So you want to maintain the offset at 7 paces so it is bore sighted (again not "zeroed").
      You still need to take it to the range to confirm but it will not need much adjustment to zero.
