Is it possible to zero a rifle at 50 yards?
It is possible to get pretty close to a 200 yard zero while using a rifle zeroing target at 50 yards. However, this requires using a chronograph to get an accurate velocity reading and a ballistic calculator to determine the expected trajectory deviation at 50 yards. Bottom line is 50/200 yard zeros are very usable for many applications.
What is the advantage of a 100 yard zero?
