As a guy who fired .223 first out of a bolt action, coming to the AR platform was a real eye opening experience. The jump from 1.5" above bore to 2.5" above bore has a real effect on the trajectory. For my bolt gun I use a 50 yd zero which gives me a 150 yard coincidental zero for 50 grain V Max. For the AR I did the battle sight zero of 25 meters and was less than impressed. I rezeroed at 42 meters and found much more happiness with a second zero at 220 meters. No idea why I did the AR in meters.
