After reading for the last couple hours every piece of sighting in advice I could find here at calguns, I am even more confused than when I started. I have to relate on my terms or I will never get it. I have a few noob basic questions I hope somebody can help me with so I can understand sighting in my new DDm4 which has Daniel Defense A1.5 Fixed Rear Sight; Pinned “F” Marked Front Sight Base. I apologize for the lameness here but I just want to be sure I got this right in my head, Okay here goes my questions.
#1-I am reading that sighting in with a 50 yard zero is the popular way to go. I read that at 50 yards I will be spot on POA/POI and then moving back to 250 yards I will again be pretty close to spot on POA/POI depending on the ammo and other considerations but fairly close right? Is that correct so far?
#2- I am assuming that the bullet will rise and fall on it's ballistic path, meaning that if I get it dead on zeroed at 50 yards, the bullet will rise some then again then drop in an arch type path of travel when it reaches the 250 yard mark to a point of near zeroed in POI ?
Again I apologize for seeming miffed at this but man, I got lost reading all these various sight in procedures. I just want to understand a basic and easy to follow sight in procedure.
