I can't seem to find info on the best way to sight-in my EOtech. Since most of the shooting will be between 10 and 100 yards, what is the best distance to zero it at? I'm assuming that I will have to allow for some height issues at close range, so what is the best distance to set my point of impact to zero.

50 yards.

I asked the SWAT guys in my city(I'm a fire fighter). They said to zero at 33 yards. Seamed to work for 0-100 work. Little low at room clearing distance obviously. Good luck.

Here's the pdf target that EO Tech has for sighting in.

I use the Ballistic app on my iPhone to help determine my zero. Using Wolf 63gr with a 5" vital zone radius the trajectories for various zeroes are below:

Zero at 50

It's +/- 2 in from POA from 0-200

Yes 50 yards will work just fine. I have nowhere to shoot past 100 yards. My 50 yard zero is fine for anywhere from 0-100 yards. Aim a little lower less the 50 yards, aim a little higher at 100.

Thank you all for the information. This is very helpful and I will go with the 50 yd. zero.
