25 yards, iron sights. You will be more precise at the ranges precision is possible without glass.

What?


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

And what appears to be a small error in that group grows to inches at 100 yards.

I use 25 yards for an INITIAL zero to get things on paper, but try at least 100 yards, 200 if possible, then shoot as far as I can find room for.

"...more precise at the ranges precision is possible without glass." You can aim dead on for an eye or, as some PH said, choose which nostril to hit at close range without having to hold off.

1X can be deadly up close. Single plane sighting might even make it faster.


And a red dot is even better.

I like 2 inch high at 100.
