Anyone remember battle zero on an A1? Its all the way to one side or the other and then so many clicks back. I just can't remember.

Nope, sure can't. Haven't thought about that since basic. And that was a long time ago.

Sorry

The Army had a target that was set out at 25 meters. You shot at it and it told you how many "clicks" to move the rear sight  L or R and the front sight post U or D by grids. I still have my target from '88 around here somewhere.

getting your BZ0 is all the way to one side, then count the clicks to the other side, devide by 2, and that should get ya centered left and right.  then with a target at 25 meters shoot groups of 3 and adjust to the bull.. and that is your BZ0

Thats a lot of clickin'! Our top had a number of clicks to return, but damned if I can remember it. Oh well, I'll click, divide and return. Thanks guys!

the a1 uses the 25/300m battle site zero.

Many here prefer the 50 yd battlesite zero.  50 yds will put you basically flat from 0-250 yds.

I think he's just trying to center the rear sight, at this point.

Well I'm not from AZ but I was searching for BZ, any way I did the clicks to the right thing to divide by 2.  On my RRA tac handle from right to left was 82 clicks, center being 41.  I'd imagine all have the same amount of clicks but i cant say for sure.  But the question was about an A1, maybe different for A2?
Thanks for the info.

ETA:  When the small aperature is up and the 0-2 is down there is a small line on the top of the ring that corresponds with lines on the base of the site, after I did the 41 clicks to the center and these lines do NOT match up perfectly, so do I trust the number of clicks or the lines??
