[ARCHIVED THREAD] - SCAR 17, what range do you zero?

Posted: 11/15/2016 12:49:56 AM EDT

I have mine sighted in at 100 yards but after looking at the ballistic charts I'm thinking of going to 250 yards. What range are you zeroed out?

200 yards has always worked for me on all my 308 rifles.

I shoot a lot of competition, so zero distance is based on what works for the match I am going to.
For the Resurgence 3gun back in Sept of this year, I shot my scarH with iron sights only, and ran a 300meter zero. I had no troubles hitting every target presented.

Its all about personal choice really. The factory rear sight is zero'd on the 300m mark at 25m. Then dial down to the 200 mark and confirm at 200m. The factory rear sights BDC is spot on if you do your job.

This is what I do. Also I keep a dope sheet for the rifle with X load and Y optic zeroed at 200 and then hold over at ranges beyond or closer.

200m, anything less is pointless

Should depend mostly on the optic. A lot of BDC type optics (Elcan, ACOG, 1-6 types) have reticles that are set for 100y zero's. 50y is a common zero for red dot optics.
