Zeroing Your Optic
1. Distance: Zero at 25 yards or greater. Zeroing at 15, 10, or 5 yards will not produce reliable results. Minimum zero distance is 25 yards.
2. Adjustment limits: If your optic runs out of adjustment on one pistol, mount it on another pistol or remove and reinstall it.
3. Iron sights: Do not slave the red dot to iron sights or use iron sights to judge zero. These methods are inaccurate.
4. Mount security: Shine a flashlight from the opposite side. No light should pass under the optic, and the optic must be completely tight.
5. Fasteners: Apply one drop of 242 Loctite to each screw and torque to at least 15 lb-in. Allow at least one hour for curing.
6. Ammunition change: Different loads can shift zero slightly. From a bench rest, re-check zero; even minor trigger movement can shift point of impact.
Adjustment references
- Click-MOA optics: Each tactile click equals 1 MOA (1 inch at 100 yards; 0.5 inch at 50 yards; 0.25 inch at 25 yards).
- Infinite-MOA or sub-half-MOA optics: Each reference mark represents approximately 6 MOA.
Direction of adjustment
- Turning the elevation screw toward UP moves the dot DOWN.
- Turning the windage screw toward RIGHT moves the dot LEFT.
Adjusting toward UP or RIGHT shifts the point of impact in the opposite direction of the dot’s movement. This is an industry-wide standard for all optic devices.
