TheStevieJ 4 Posted January 11, 2014 Is the zero option on the Mosin a lot different then the zero on the m4? By this I mean at 200m you really need to zero for 200m if you want pin point accuracy or it will hit the ground / walls next to the person. With the mosin at 200-300m, I could zero to 100 and hit pin point where I was aiming O.o? Glitch or is it because of it's travel speed or ...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nanoha 37 Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Short answer is it shouldn't matter. It depends where on the body you are aiming. If you imagine a circle on your target in which your bullets will hit (due to random deviation), then centring that circle on the head will result in a lot of that circle being off target. If it is centred more on the chest then a lot more of that circle is on the target. If you are firing at someone's head at 200m with your gun zeroed to 200m then the circle will be centred around their head. If you then zero your gun to 100m the circle will be centred lower down (perhaps on their chest). With the Mosin (and it's tighter circle) the circle on the chest might well be completely on a person, where as the if it was on the head it might go outside. Shots fired zeroed at 200 then might miss but shots at 100m zero would hit. For the m4, it's got such dire inaccuracy that the difference between the circle on the head and the circle on the chest at 200m is probably quite insignificant. A simple picture would demonstrate this far more effectively than words but that would involve uploading one somewhere.. Ah range I would zero correctly and just aim for the chest.

-Gews- 7443 Posted January 11, 2014 With the mosin at 200-300m, I could zero to 100 and hit pin point where I was aiming O.o? Working as intended, zeroed at 200 it will be less than 2.5" high at 100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazykage 1063 Posted January 11, 2014 I find the moisin w/ PU scope to be reliably accurate up to 300 meters. probably more, but haven't found a zombie I could see from 400 yet. When I do, ill try it out. M4? I find THAT to be reliably accurate up to a range of about....10 feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
