Me too. Especially like the side view graph at the end at about 7:00. Most people if they’re like me just want you to show me. Don’t tell me show me. You do a great job of showing on this video thank you. Happy shooting, on target if possible.👍💯
From someone who has never sighted in a red dot, your instructions could not have been easier to follow unless I just paid someone else to do it. Thank you!
I followed your instruction, but could not hit a beer can at 1000 yards. I was actually glad it didn't work, because walking to the target made me thirsty.
This really is an excellent instructional. Clear and to the point. Its worth mentioning that, when determining your point of impact vs point of aim, you should take 3 shots. Once those 3 shots are in a tight group you can confidently begin making adjustments. If your shots aren't in a tight group you can't accurately determine how far and in what direction to move the dot/cross hairs.
One last comment about this vid. This is great to tell your friends that are just getting into red dots or zeroing in a scope. Too many sites just try to impress you with their knowledge and ZERO about how the hell to do it. Pass this on to your new shooters. I've already shared this link with someone that needs it CLEARLY and SIMPLY explained and demonstrated. Thanks Koda. This will actually help new shooters.
Was sighting in my new Sig Romeo 4 on my new AR with a laser bore sight. Red dot wasn't moving no matter how much I turned the "knobs". Though the sight was busted, it wasn't... the "knobs" weren't "knobs" they were the adjustment dial covers... Needless to say but I felt really stupid after unscrewing the covers. Thanks for the help got it as about dead on as I can with the laser bore sight as I can, can't wait to take it out to the desert and get it really dialed in.
Ha! Yeah, I’m glad I saw this vid. I’m going to sight my red dot in next time I hit the range, and I suspect after reading your post, I would have done the same!
SpookyCitrus Thanks for sharing that. I’ve been shooting for over 45 years but have only used iron sights, scopes and lasers. I’ve done plenty of stuff that makes me feel stupid but it’s OK as long as you’re SAFE. I just bought a Hi Point 995TS and took it to the range and ran a couple of hundred rounds through it. I’m going to buy a red dot and use a riser to keep my iron sights. This was a very informative video for me and I thank the author (and gave him a thumbs up 👍🏻).
All this time I thought I was an idiot. I came back to basics to try to figure this out. You saved me from crazy by telling me that sometimes the Chinese get them backward. At least one of my rifles has windage backward, and I think one has elevation backward. I've never been able to convince myself that the scope is wrong. Once you leave the paper, it's forever to get it back if you don't know what's lying to you. I might still be an idiot, but not when it comes to this. A belated thank you to you, sir.
Newer shooter here, and I have always wondered how to this worked. Excellent job explaining this simple but much needed info. I have found 90% of most vids put so much BS and jargon in their content trying to impress everyone, that it turns off 90% of the audiance. This man kept it simple. Thx for the assist.
Got my 1st rifle last week and my 1st optic today. I just roughed this out using a bore sight and a tree deep in the woods, hit up the range and test it for real this week. This video was great, easy to understand and showed me everything I think I need for my 1st run.
Simple but effective method. Was able to zero my TRS-25 using your video and drafting paper with 1/2 inch lines with your targeting chart for easier measuring.. Thank you!
I just picked up my first AR15 and put a Sig Romeo 5 optic on it. Thank you for taking the time to show people like me who recently purchased their first rifle and/or optic. I'm definitely thankful to have found and watched your video! There needs to be a "gun optics how-to for dummies"
I had to watch your video twice, but now I get it. And, I get it completely-- the math, the geometry, the logic of it-- everything. Thanks for using a simple approach. It was simply brilliant.
I was zeroing mine yesterday for the first time. I'm happy to hear he's had scopes where the clicks were backwards. That was my case. Took me a couple mags to realize what was going on. Thought I was just having a bad day at the range😂
Bro outstanding video. yesterday was the first time that I’ve zeroed my weapon in less than nine shots. My previous four temps I wasted at least 70 to 100 rounds of ammo try to zero my weapon and then frustration kicked in and I just became very irritated . Thanks to your video presentation and knowledge that you have I was able to zero in nine-shots. Hitting the Bullseye on the eighth and ninth shot. Thanks again
I have been shooting for 20 years but never zeroed a red dot. Thank you for sharing this information it is very helpful for us who have never used or zeroed before 👌
Great video. Simple and straight forward. Explaining this to students sometimes falls into one of those TMI situations. Any instructor with a lot of knowledge sometimes overexplains things and then the student ends up just as confused as when they started. This was a real good video that should definitely be shown at basic schools. Good job.
Thank you for making this so easy to understand. I just bought a red dot and I didn't have a clue how to zero it in. You made it very clear and easy to understand. Thanks!
Thank you, I had no idea what MOA stood for. Most people don't realize that calorie is a unit if energy. Anyway the video helped alot, you're a great teacher. Tyvm
I would just like to thank you very very much 4 simplifying something that I was trying to show my son but he couldn't grasp it and being brought up since I was six years old shooting I learned from my uncle who was the Korean sniper and I first learned how to shoot instinctively with a 22 but she could not grasp quarter inch Moa and when you show it in hundred yard MOA clicks he grasped it better and working backwards he graph Stitt better that way because he is a learning disorder called dyslexia and I have to thank you because he grasped it instantly after your explanation so once again thank you so much God bless you keep up the excellent videos and some people just need it simplified peace save shooting and all the best to you and your family sincerely David
Great video. As someone who prefers a fixed sight, I've shot with a red dot sights before, but I never adjusted one. You're video was excellent for someone new to zeroing red dot sights like me. In five minutes, I had the red dot sight on my crossbow pistol zeroed and hitting the bullseye nearly every time. Thanks!
Thank you, going this weekend to zero in my Romeo 5, and this is tremendous help! Very clear, I watched the video 3 times since this is all new to me, first gun owner in my family generation apart from grandma that had a little revolver.
Glad to see your neat method. I watched your irons zeroing video, liked it too. Neat explanation of MOA increments. Also, glad that someone is using the "budget/cheap" red dots, and not insisting on Aimpoints and EOtechs. I use and swear by the Field Sport Red Dot. That thing holds zero like a boss, and is durable. I did have to fix the little circuit board screws, which was kinda difficult, but it was worth it for what it's capable of. Great vid KB :)
Just bought first AR and it came with a red dot. Went to the rant to sight it in wo reading the any instructions. I was turning the right “knobs” but nothing seemed to change. Then watched your wonderful vid and found out I need to remove those “knobs” for adjustment. Hahahaha. I was so frustrated. I’ll try again.
Thank you thank you for making and explaining all of this. Mine was off on my 223 to low 3 to 4 inches and to much to the left. 5 clicks on elevation knob and 7 or 8 clicks on windage and now I'm on the money. Thank you again very plain and simple. Awsome video and teaching
Watching this for my crossbows since g-ns are illegal in the UK. Pro tip for anyone interested, if like in the video you can't adjust it to be dead inbetween two boxes, adjust it to the high right, since most right handed sho0ters have a tendancy to pull low left when depressing the trigger. This is especially true for crossbows, where the trigger weight can sometimes be in excess of 3lbs of force (on bad designs).
Maaaan. When I first saw that video I freaked out and laughed my ass off at the same time. First, just being realistic, my wife is drop dead gorgeous, but she's crazy as HELL. So at the end, when it got to the name and it was Tiffany, I about shit my pants. I showed it to my wife and even she was like, damn you men got us figured out.
hi kota, reply from aussie land, down under. while we have had our guns taken from us, unless you are a roo shooter or a weekend shooter, i lhave always wondered how to zero in the red dot. you are the most practical instructor i have listened too. a lot of others like to boast them selves up, but you are very down to earth and a great teacher. thank you, o by the way i am 80yrs young and still have an interest in shooting and i look on the utube and see what is out there. roy.
Super simple and clean, Thank You! I just purchased my first rifle, and I bought a new UTG Bug Buster scope. This will be my very first time ever zeroing a scope, but with the knowledge you just taught me, and all your other videos for reference, I'm pretty confident I'll get the hang of it over a couple range visits. Thank you sir!
Thank you for this video; it’s incredibly helpful! I’m a new rifle owner and am about to leave for the range to zero my new Romeo 5 this morning. Much appreciated!
Okay so just to clarify because I'm horrible at math, while using the same video... At 25 yards which is typically the length of an indoor range. TO ZERO IN I WOULD NEED 24 CLICKS UP AND 20 CLICKS RIGHT??? IS THAT CORRECT????
The bushnell red dot is a great red dot for the price. I like it better than more expensive ones. This is great for those first getting into red dots or any other optic. Simple and clean
Your a great instructor, I had a parent that was a professor at BSU and you your teaching style reminds me of theirs. Awesome video for beginners I will definitely recommend. I was wondering if you could make a video for zeroing a red dot 🔴 and magnifier. I have the Bushnell your doing your tutorial on and the matching magnifier. If you have the time I would absolutely love to see a video on the combination of the two as I am a novice to scopes. I was always a 686/1911 kind of guy til recently. I picked up an AR15 and have mounted the scopes on my build. Hope to see a video soon explaining how to use the two in tandem. Thanks again for all your work and time.
That must have taken you some serious time and planning to draw that board graph and to be set up the way that you are. Very good job at making a great and educational video yourself, on a budget and very down to earth. Kudos my friend. Great video.
I don't know why I was flipping it in my head for so long but this finally made it click for me, Up and Right refer to the point of impact in relation to the dot, every time I thought about it I was adjusting the sight in the wrong direction because I was picturing lowering the dot down to where I was impacting instead of the other way around
Whether some us accept it or not this video cleared up any Q about "how to" do it the quick and easy way, thanks for your time and sharing your knowledge!
Thank you, my friend. This was incredibly helpful. I’ve had a Ruger 10/22 for a few years and have gotten pretty good with it. I wanted to get into more long-range shooting and installed a red dot scope. I was overwhelmed but this video made it super simple to understand.
Your information was amazing, I literally listen for like 15 min walked down to my local range . I was able to sight it in with in a few seconds big help tks💪🏾😈
I used to turn the adjustment blindly, back and forth like I am cracking a safe or something, not knowing one click equals to 1 MOA. Used to take me a whole mag or more to finish the zeroing, now it takes like 5 shots. Really helpful video.
Great video! I served during the 80’s and was taught on the M16A 1 with iron sights, being an Airman I was never taught to use scopes and such, but through out the years, I had to teach myself how to zero in my various scopes, this is a big help for my long range shooting! Thanks for the easy to understand video! 🤙🏾🤙🏾🇺🇸🇺🇸
Outstanding explanation. Now, shooters have to make sure that proper sight picture, proper trigger squeeze, and proper breathing are applied during the zero process though.
Very good lesson! Keep them coming. There are always new 2nd Amendment participants who can learn. Experienced shooters can use a refresher and pass on this knowledge!
Good to see the (straight to the point) teaching tactics still exist. To be honest, reminds me of how my Drill Sergeant got things across to a platoon of 40+ knuckle heads. Get it? Got it? Goooooood!!! Now let's see it done!!! Many years ago. Keep up the videos!!! I'll keep watching!!!
MAN-O-MAN!!!! I am so glad I found THIS VIDEO!!! Since I am a new shooter coming into the sport, YOUR VIDEO explained how to zero in the accuracy to a novice like me in "red dot shooting for Dummies" format! THANK YOU!!!
I know it's been nearly six years, but thank you so much for explaining everything in such a simple manner!! Have my red dot coming in two days, so can't wait to apply what I've learned from you!!!!!!
Not new to shooting but new to red dots. I bailed on several other how-to videos until I found this very helpful & to the point instructional video. Thanks mucho amigo!👍
Thank you. I bought a Bushnell TRS-125 (first sight/red dot I've ever purchased) and assumed this would be covered in the instruction manual. The instruction manual is basically one sentence that just says to turn the adjustments and be sure to replace the caps when finished lol. I thought I was going to look like an idiot at the range trying to figure this out. Now I feel like it makes sense, very informative, and maybe I'll look like I know what I'm doing. Off to the range now with my dad for his birthday :)
I'm pleased to report that it worked perfectly. My first grouping was bottom/left by 6 & 3 inches. The indoor range we were at was only 25 yards so I multiplied by 4 and got 24 & 12 clicks respectively. My dad said, "that's way too many; I think you should only do 6 clicks." I said "but I watched this video......" so I did 24 & 12 as calculated. My 2nd grouping was dead center. I think even the range officer was impressed that I got it zero'd on the first try because he was watching and gave me a smile.
Thank you, I’ve always used open sights w/ primarily lever rifles. No problem adjusting open sights. Never bother w/scopes of any kind. Finally picked up a red dot w/ no clue. If the instructions for the red dot made any sense, I would have no need for your video. Your instructions worked like a charm. Excellent
I put the Romeo5 on my Henry H001 .22 lever action rifle. All I needed was a picatinny rail to go on top of the Henry. It fit perfectly. It works great for me. Zeroed easily.
Great video! No fluff, no rambling, no sales pitch. Straight to the point and easy to understand. Easy thumbs up for you, sir!
Agreed, straight to the point, clear instructions.
Totally agreed , straight to the point

was it Busch Lite? or PBR?
@@SmileNDenile Ice House. I have a sophisticated palate.
At that distance using a red dot standard aiming is like playing on lottery . U need to learn different ways to aim in order to hit that can .
@@techieentertainment7090 whoosh?
@@techieentertainment7090 He simply needs a larger can
4 years later, best way of explaining zeroing. Thanks
It's 2024 and still watched this. Very informative. Thank you
This really is an excellent instructional. Clear and to the point. Its worth mentioning that, when determining your point of impact vs point of aim, you should take 3 shots.

Agreed Big Al... I’m new to red dot and it helped me! Definitely thanks Koda!
I just got into AR (pistol) and my Romeo MSR green dot came in yesterday. This video gave me relief to try and zero in my optic

@@ryanmariner Exactly! It's definitely a good thing to know. 👍

As a beginner shooter, I really appreciate you breaking this down! Great work!
Welcome to the community.
This was the clearest and easiest i have ever heard MOA explained. Thank you so much!
THANK you Kotaboy. A man with knowledge sharing it with someone without it. That is how America was built.
Newer shooter here, and I have always wondered how to this worked. Excellent job explaining this simple but much needed info.

There needs to be a "gun optics how-to for dummies"
Hands down your tutorial was the easiest FOR ME to understand. Next step is to use it in the field. Thank you!
I had to watch your video twice, but now I get it. And, I get it completely-- the math, the geometry, the logic of it-- everything. Thanks for using a simple approach. It was simply brilliant.
I was zeroing mine yesterday for the first time. I'm happy to hear he's had scopes where the clicks were backwards. That was my case. Took me a couple mags to realize what was going on. Thought I was just having a bad day at the range😂
Jeremy same with mine. The red dot sight came with my Umarex pistol thought the sight was on backwards !
Bruh… i been trying to get this red dot flush all day and didn’t even know this. Makes sense lol
Finally a instruction video regarding MOA that anybody can understand, thank you.
Bro outstanding video. yesterday was the first time that I’ve zeroed my weapon in less than nine shots. My previous four temps I wasted at least 70 to 100 rounds of ammo try to zero my weapon and then frustration kicked in and I just became very irritated . Thanks to your video presentation and knowledge that you have I was able to zero in nine-shots. Hitting the Bullseye on the eighth and ninth shot. Thanks again
You're helping a lot of people like me who is new in shooting sport. Thank you so much for the video.
I have been shooting for 20 years but never zeroed a red dot. Thank you for sharing this information it is very helpful for us who have never used or zeroed before 👌
This Beginner appreciates your explanation. Clear, concise.
Great video. Simple and straight forward. Explaining this to students sometimes falls into one of those TMI situations. Any instructor with a lot of knowledge sometimes overexplains things and then the student ends up just as confused as when they started. This was a real good video that should definitely be shown at basic schools. Good job.
I'm new to guns and this video is perfect man, thanks.
Been shooting a while and this was the best explanation Inuave ever heard of MOA. Great work !!!!
Appreciated Much

Never been a fan of optics even though I own optics, but now I wanna go slap my red dot back on and test this out.
Glad to see your neat method. I watched your irons zeroing video, liked it too. Neat explanation of MOA increments.
Also, glad that someone is using the "budget/cheap" red dots, and not insisting on Aimpoints and EOtechs. I use and swear by the Field Sport Red Dot. That thing holds zero like a boss, and is durable. I did have to fix the little circuit board screws, which was kinda difficult, but it was worth it for what it's capable of.
Great vid KB :)
Yes! Laugh all ya want, but i love my $27 fyland reflex sight.
Just bought first AR and it came with a red dot. Went to the rant to sight it in wo reading the any instructions. I was turning the right “knobs” but nothing seemed to change.
Then watched your wonderful vid and found out I need to remove those “knobs” for adjustment.
Hahahaha. I was so frustrated. I’ll try again.

Sir, thank you for a short, concise video on this subject! Learned exactly what was needed.
Very good at explaining how to dial in the TRS-25 scope. Thank you for taking your time to explain this for us. 👍👍
Watching this for my crossbows since g-ns are illegal in the UK. Pro tip for anyone interested, if like in the video you can't adjust it to be dead inbetween two boxes, adjust it to the high right, since most right handed sho0ters have a tendancy to pull low left when depressing the trigger. This is especially true for crossbows, where the trigger weight can sometimes be in excess of 3lbs of force (on bad designs).
Perfect explanation
100 yards = 1”
50 yards = 1/2”
25 yards = 1/4”
So it’s just like math. 100=1, 50=1/2, 25=1/4
Makes perfect sense!!!!!
Except that one MOA isn’t actually one inch at 100yds.
Truly the best video for zero-ing a red dot. Thank you very much,
You’ve earned a subscriber!
This reminds me of the female hotness to crazy graph explanation 😂😂
The crazy hot matrix
Thats my favorite show ever

At 50 yards the dot on this Bushnell will cover 1.5 inches and 3 inches at 100 yards. Great video sir
Perfect I'm your target audience for this video and learned a lot! Thanks
That's because he knows how to hit his "target audience"!
Super simple and clean, Thank You! I just purchased my first rifle, and I bought a new UTG Bug Buster scope. This will be my very first time ever zeroing a scope, but with the knowledge you just taught me, and all your other videos for reference, I'm pretty confident I'll get the hang of it over a couple range visits. Thank you sir!
Michael Fabian hi how do you like that scope? im looking for one and have seen this but im new to the ar platform or any rifle at that.thanks .
As someone who had no clue what zero in meant you explained this very well. Easy to follow. Can’t wait to try myself.
God finally an explanation that makes sense,some of these videos these youtubers make makes no sense at all
This is the best video of showing how to use a red dot while others just talking long uselessly and shooting at a target without seeing a red dot.
Awesome, thanks for making that easier to understand man.
Thank you for this video; it’s incredibly helpful! I’m a new rifle owner and am about to leave for the range to zero my new Romeo 5 this morning. Much appreciated!
Man!! Thank you. I was having the hardest time figuring this out. Saved me lots of ammo. I am not a rookie, but needed it explained in simple terms.
Okay so just to clarify because I'm horrible at math, while using the same video... At 25 yards which is typically the length of an indoor range. TO ZERO IN I WOULD NEED 24 CLICKS UP AND 20 CLICKS RIGHT??? IS THAT CORRECT????

This is great for those first getting into red dots or any other optic. Simple and clean
My first RDS was the SS Romeo 5. Also a great red dot and I'd say a step up from the Bushnell. Just over a bill.
This is the best explanation I've found, interestingly, its the only one where the instructor isn't on the range, thank you!

I used to turn the adjustment blindly, back and forth like I am cracking a safe or something, not knowing one click equals to 1 MOA. Used to take me a whole mag or more to finish the zeroing, now it takes like 5 shots. Really helpful video.
Lol I was doing that as well very blindly lol
KISS: Thank you for once again proving this concept works!
Great video, I am an experienced shooter with Marine Corps training and I learned a few things from this video. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Brother, that was the best explanation I ever seen! Thanks!
Great video! I served during the 80’s and was taught on the M16A 1 with iron sights, being an Airman I was never taught to use scopes and such, but through out the years, I had to teach myself how to zero in my various scopes, this is a big help for my long range shooting! Thanks for the easy to understand video! 🤙🏾🤙🏾🇺🇸🇺🇸
I wish this was the lessons we learned in math class at school.
Russia teaches this also how to break down clean and operate ,this is the type of energy we need in the USA

Lmfaoooo 😂😂😂😂😂
Outstanding explanation. Now, shooters have to make sure that proper sight picture, proper trigger squeeze, and proper breathing are applied during the zero process though.
Very good lesson! Keep them coming. There are always new 2nd Amendment participants who can learn. Experienced shooters can use a refresher and pass on this knowledge!
Good to see the (straight to the point) teaching tactics still exist. To be honest, reminds me of how my Drill Sergeant got things across to a platoon of 40+ knuckle heads. Get it? Got it? Goooooood!!! Now let's see it done!!! Many years ago. Keep up the videos!!! I'll keep watching!!!
Thank you for the clear and concise explanation. It is extremely helpful and I will pass it along.
MAN-O-MAN!!!! I am so glad I found THIS VIDEO!!! Since I am a new shooter coming into the sport, YOUR VIDEO explained how to zero in the accuracy to a novice like me in "red dot shooting for Dummies" format! THANK YOU!!!
Great explanation, should be easy for anyone to follow!

I know it's been nearly six years, but thank you so much for explaining everything in such a simple manner!! Have my red dot coming in two days, so can't wait to apply what I've learned from you!!!!!!
That WAS helpful. Thanks for the straightforward explanation!
Nicely done. No talking down to people, right to the point! Many tnx.
Thx, bought one of those red dots recently
Not new to shooting but new to red dots. I bailed on several other how-to videos until I found this very helpful & to the point instructional video. Thanks mucho amigo!👍
I didn’t know this was gonna be a geography lesson
Thank you. I bought a Bushnell TRS-125 (first sight/red dot I've ever purchased) and assumed this would be covered in the instruction manual. The instruction manual is basically one sentence that just says to turn the adjustments and be sure to replace the caps when finished lol. I thought I was going to look like an idiot at the range trying to figure this out. Now I feel like it makes sense, very informative, and maybe I'll look like I know what I'm doing. Off to the range now with my dad for his birthday :)
I'm pleased to report that it worked perfectly. My first grouping was bottom/left by 6 & 3 inches. The indoor range we were at was only 25 yards so I multiplied by 4 and got 24 & 12 clicks respectively. My dad said, "that's way too many; I think you should only do 6 clicks." I said "but I watched this video......" so I did 24 & 12 as calculated. My 2nd grouping was dead center. I think even the range officer was impressed that I got it zero'd on the first try because he was watching and gave me a smile.
Nice explanation Brother, well Done! Carry on
Thank you, I’ve always used open sights w/ primarily lever rifles. No problem adjusting open sights. Never bother w/scopes of any kind. Finally picked up a red dot w/ no clue. If the instructions for the red dot made any sense, I would have no need for your video. Your instructions worked like a charm. Excellent
He went full blown community college on this vid, lol.
I like this guy because he gives the basic knowledge without the bull
Usually when I miss my target she just says that's not it, up a little.
THAT'S THE WRONG HOLE! :D
Shots fired

This is the best and easiest explanation of how to adjust a moa scope / red dot well done
Thank you sooo much... I have ALWAYS wondered, and you’ve explained it so well!! 🙏🏻
Newbie red dot guy here.... Thank you for this well explained, easy to understand video. Greatly appreciated 👍
2:00 “if I aim here, but hit here” ...... your dot is zero’d, quit pulling. 😁
I watched 4-5 video on this and "MOA" Had me baffled. YOUR vid fixed that for me. Thank Man. VERY GOOD explanation.
I put the Romeo5 on my Henry H001 .22 lever action rifle. All I needed was a picatinny rail to go on top of the Henry. It fit perfectly. It works great for me. Zeroed easily.
you are a great teacher! awesome info. thanks!
