This video evaluates the 36-yard zero for an LPVO on a Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 using 5.56x45mm 62-grain ammunition. The zero provides effective point-of-aim/point-of-impact consistency for center-mass hits up to 300 yards, with minimal holdover required. Beyond 300 yards, particularly at 400 yards, bullet drop becomes significant, exceeding the target size when holding center.
