Why are you making this so hard? I fire one round and say the round hits high right. I’ll aim at center and adjust my dot the point of impact then shoot a second round and walah my red dot is now zeroed. Then I shoot a group of 3-5 to be sure. And I’ll also use a sandbag rest or something similar.

The thing about KZread is you can have a video with the same topic as 50 others and people will still come across yours also. I came here after another video on the same topic and subbed too.

This is great. Sans a target, you can even adjust using a paper plate. It works. Love your channel, very informative and very funny.

Respect for not editing out misses like the tacticool gun tubers. 🇺🇸🦅💪

Shooting for self-defense, I tend to zero in at 10 - 15 yards. Anything farther out, it's either going to be I have time to evade or prepare for the situation, or the threat has been minimized due to distance.

Came for the red dot tips, stayed for the Super Troopers reference.

This is exactly how I sight my pistol optics in. I do the same blank target and sharpie for my CQB rifle zero as well not only is it a fine point to aim at its much cheaper than buying targets. Solid grouping! For a second when I opened the video I thought you were Nick Freitas 😂

Pretty straightforward, but this was still amusing to watch.

Really simple and informative video!

As someone who zeros in red dots as part of my job. Your grouping is very good for free hand. May use your video for a learning guide to customers that "want to make the laser thing make them shoot better " 😅

Definitely honest! I might have edited and shot a little more but the principal is definitely there!,,, and explained well. Great (Real) video! I certainly appreciate your honesty especially when it comes to educating new folks.

This was super helpful.

Good and straight forward video. I like 10-15 yard zero for small guns. Hellcat shield 365 kahr. 25 for handguns with a 3.5”ish or longer barrel. 320 m&p glock 19-17 1911/2011

Great video man super easy process

Great Video, Thank You. It was great to verify what I thought I already new!

But, but, but, but…. Short and simple. Well done. 👍

Exactly how I do it….so it must be the best way 👏👏👍 great vid

Thank you for sharing this

Quick, to the point, and as an added bonus…funny!

After zeroing all 6 of my handguns I can honestly say the distance of zero doesn’t matter so much if you train and know the point of impact at different distances and how much you need to hold over. Real good video my guy! 2A or no way!

I thought you were donut operator when I saw the video thumbnail

Tyler is so swole. ❤

Great video! Thanks!

great video!

Thanks, very helpful

Great video man thank you ! Subscribed

Great video. I have slot of experience with iron sights, but just got into green dot (with circle) sights.

Well Done!

They say that the average shooting battle takes place at 15 feet. I normally practice at about that distance. But given todays mass shootings I think that it would be a good idea to practice at longer distances, and pick an aim point somewhere in between. At least that’s what I plan to do.

Well he said it the optic can be perfect you gotta just be able to shoot an his phrase I'm ah man super good content 👌

What, that little guy? I wouldn’t worry about that little guy 😂

As a mathematician, I am stealing the phrase "dissect and bisect"

5 star video

Shouldn't you use a rest of some sort in the zeroing processing???

"if I were a better shot".... Wish my 10-yard groups looked that good!

When it comes to the exact distance that you should zero your red dot, there is only one correct answer. To get full effect of the bullets trajectory and the acceptable range where it hits you need to start with the muzzle velocity, then you need to know the bullet weight. Then you need to know what is the projectiles coefficient. After you have that figured out then you can find the distance at which the apex of the trajectory is and find the rise and fall within the target hit range. But let’s be honest. All that changes depending on the humidity level, temperature and barometric pressure. Or you could just do what he did here and zero it between 10 and 15 yards and you’ll be good. That’s how I roll. Sometimes we can just overthink this stuff.

Batman would be jealous of that utility belt. With the large variable being his shot, how could you be certain without removing “said” variable and locking the pistol in a fixed position to accurately zero it in?

Genuine question here. Does the dot HAVE to line up with the irons? Or is it two independent sighting systems? does the reticle have to lollipop the front sight and line up with rear sights?

As long as I can see my front site I don't need anything else in combat shooting the arms are straight out and you're just looking over your front side and placing it over your target . This is as long as it's not way off .

Serious question from an inexperienced shooter. Doesn’t this allow to compensate for poor shooting? If I’m off target because of grip, trigger finger placement, etc does this just out the dot where I’m shooting instead of allowing me to learn how to shoot better?

@BlueAlphaBelts

If you're shooting a tight enough group that you can properly zero your pistol, you're off to a good start. If your impacts shift as you become more skilled then you can just make zero adjustments.

Bring the sight down to move your grouping up. Bring your sight up to move your grouping down.

I think it is important to note think that 90 plus % of shooters can't do this without stabilizing the pistol and taking human error completely out of the equation. He is a great shot so he can get away with it but most can't.

Agreed. Was really surprised that he didn't stabilize. Many newbies, myself included, would mess this up without (which is exactly what happened the first time I tried to zero my Holosun SCS). No matter how good you think you are, stabilize and remove the human element.

Boys.. do thia from a bench. If you are watching a youtube video on how to zero, you will probably need to shoot from a bench at first. If you want a CONCISE and PRECISE zero. Slow down, and shoot from a bench.

You know I can teach him to shoot that thing right?

It does which means the shooter must have ZERO movement which is 99.99% impossible. When you zero, the gun or rifle needs to be resting or locked in a mount so that it does not "move" when you pull the trigger as it "will" when you do it free hand

For the life of me, I cannot understand why people try to “zero“ a pistol without using a rest. Would you sight in your rifle scope in the same way? I think not…

Tyler Two Guns! You sexy beast!

Shoot it at 10 because MOA math is easier at 10 than it is at 15. If you want to refine at 15 do it after you made the rough adjustments.

Tyler you going the gym

5 meter zero for me.
