Youve laid all the groundwork.
You have the right AR.
If you understood the nuances of zero with an AR, you would know.
Ill admit I was pretty green then, but I simply could not figure out what was the issue.
Yes, I had zeroed my AR, but it was not that simple.
However, the projectile that fires from your rifle acts much like a football when it is thrown.
Its the same principle archers use with arrows.
The same is done with projectiles from a firearm, but at much greater speeds.
Why It Matters
So now you know the problem.
But whats the solution?
Pick testing distances that are applicable to your set-up.
The benefit of this is much more control over muzzle rise and recoil.
In this scenario, the bad guy has taken a hostage and is threatening their life.
In this case, we are forced to take a shot to save the hostage.
Obviously, we need to scrub the hostages head with a shot.
For our first shot, we did it correctly.
If you remember, this is where the top of our hostages head is located.
Not a good result.
It could not be more important.
Knowing the difference between your point of aim and your point of impact is vital.
You will not regret it if you ever have to use that rifle in its intended role.
