Caleb and I recently went on a tangent about rifle zeroes
Something that we touched on too is optic-bore offset, or called optic height over bore. The placement of an optic and the rifle’s inherent design have a dramatic influence on which zeroes are most useful and usually, for all rifles, the closer the zero the less useful it is.
This 9-Hole video (above) tackles several details about why zeroes and comparative optic height are so important. A poor zero can give you a tremendous amount of vertical variance for shots where you do not want it, close and quick, while proper zeroes, heights, and optics give you flat and predictable trajectories with logical progressions at range.
Also, if you haven’t, go check out Josh and Henry’s channel too. Good information to add to the files.
