Videos tagged with 15 Yard Zero

This guide details how to zero a pistol red dot sight, drawing on the expertise of the Honest Outlaw. It emphasizes establishing a practical zeroing distance, typically 10-25 yards, with a personal preference for 15 yards. The video demonstrates the effectiveness of this zero across various ranges, from close engagements to 85 yards, by successfully hitting steel targets. It also touches on the minimal bore offset for handguns compared to rifles and practical considerations like using steel targets in windy conditions.

Pro shooter Max Michelle details a precise method for zeroing a red dot optic on a pistol, emphasizing a 15-yard zero for optimal ballistic performance. He advocates for using a stable shooting rest to remove shooter error and accurately measure group centers for precise optic adjustments. This technique helps ensure consistent accuracy for competition or self-defense.

This video provides a quick tip for zeroing a red dot optic on a concealed carry handgun, specifically the P365X Macro Comp. Instructor Jude from Brownells demonstrates a hasty zeroing technique starting by aligning the optic with iron sights, then firing groups at 15 yards and making incremental adjustments to elevation and windage until the point of impact matches the point of aim. The method emphasizes getting on paper quickly and fine-tuning for effective concealed carry distances.

This guide details how to perform a preliminary optic zero at home using the Sight Rite 2.0 laser bore sighter, as demonstrated by firearms instructor Johnny Q. It covers safety protocols, bore sighter installation, optic adjustment, and the crucial step of confirming the zero at the range. The process emphasizes achieving an initial alignment to save time and ammunition.

This video provides first impressions and initial shooting impressions of a custom Staccato C2 Mansa, modified by Vulcan Machine Works. The presenter details the custom features, including the 'Mansa' colorway, Ignis ports, and Red Dirt trigger, and demonstrates zeroing the pistol at 15 yards, followed by engagements on steel targets at 25 and 50 yards. The review highlights the pistol's smooth operation, excellent trigger, and accuracy.

This guide details how to effectively zero a pistol red dot sight, emphasizing a progressive approach from 5 to 15 yards. It highlights the importance of using consistent ammunition (115-grain 9mm recommended) and understanding ballistic trajectory. The method involves shooting groups, connecting the bullet holes to find the center, and adjusting the optic accordingly, aiming for pinpoint accuracy between 15-25 yards.

This guide details Mike Pannone's recommended technique for zeroing pistol red dot sights, emphasizing a 15-yard zero for optimal accuracy across common engagement distances. Pannone, a former Tier 1 operator and founder of CTT Solutions, stresses the importance of using a stable rest to remove shooter error and explains the ballistic advantages of a 15-yard zero over a 10-yard zero, particularly for practical pistol engagements up to 50 yards.

This guide, based on instruction from Sig Sauer Academy instructor Colin Murphy, details the process of zeroing a red dot sight on a handgun. It emphasizes a 15-yard zero for minimizing holdover/holdunder issues and explains techniques for confirming zero, identifying shooter error versus mechanical issues, and understanding parallax. The instruction highlights that for handgun red dots, the offset is often negligible, and shooters should focus on consistent aiming and trigger control.
