The rifle will be a hd/sd gun as well as a spot and stalk thick brush and tree stand gun.
So the distances I would use the iron sights I'm thinking will be max of 100 yards, they will be back up to the red dot I'm going to use as primary.
The red dot I'm going to sight at 100 yards.
Sticks you make a good point about just sighting it at 100 like I do everything else.
What about doing a 25 yard zero with the iron sights?
Point of aim / impact with a 25 yard zero will be between 250 and 300 yards.
Point of aim / impact with a 50 yard zero will be around 100 yards.
Probably the best way to find out is to measure 100 and 300 yards very precisely and get a zero for them. Then measure 25 and 50 yards and shoot the 300 and then the 100 yard zero on to the paper at 25 and 50 yards respectively.
Battlesight zero's are fine for battle but not fine for precision. Neither is anything made by Leapers. Can't believe you would buy Leapers sights. No way -- tell us it was to test our attention to detail in reading your post!
If it is a BUIS, you will be hard pressed to get a consistent zero at 300 because they are crude at best. Fine for Quick Kill stuff at 100 or closer but I doubt you will get a consistent zero with them at 300.
