The graphics below illustrate and compare different common zeros and the impacts they yield at various ranges. The graphics show points of impact for a given zero using various common barrel length and popular ammunition combinations. The trajectories of M193, M855, and Mk262 ammunition is illustrated with velocities adjusted for the given barrel length in an attempt to give most shooters an idea of what their set-up is doing down range. These are meant to be a quick visual reference. There are far too many factors that come into play for these to be 100% accurate for every set up and situation, but they will get you close. Also, keep in mind that these graphics do not take factors such as weapon/ammunition accuracy and shooter error into account. These graphics are based off of 100% perfect conditions and are meant to give you a general idea of where your impacts will be.
The graphics use a standard IPSC target for scale. The red dot is the point of aim with the black dots being the point of impact for the given distance.
Hopefully you guys find these to be helpful as an easy way to see what your chosen zero yields with your set-up.
I’m still working up graphics for 11.5”, 12.5”, and 20” guns and should have them up soon.
