Operations Manual

.223 CALIBER
ZEROING SIGHTS
1. Set elevation to 8/3 low or 6/3 for detachable carry handle and flat top rear sights, then
raise it one click. No further adjustment should be made during zeroing.
2. Flip aperture to small long range sight.
3. Set aperture to mechanical zero by adjusting windage until sight is aligned with center
line on scale under sight.
4. Carefully aim and fire at bull's-eye on target at 25 meters: Fire ten rounds to establish
a group.
5. Compare group with bull's-eye , if they match, no further adjustment is necessary.
6. If group does not match bull's-eye, measure vertical and horizontal distance from bull’s
eye.
7. Calculate clicks of windage required to move impact appropriate distance.Turn windage
knob accordingly. (see chart on page 6 for 25m windage clicks)
8. Calculate clicks of front sight required to raise or lower impact appropriate distance.
(1 click = 3/8 in. at 25 m)
9. Depress plunger and front sight required number of clicks. Clockwise will lower sight
and raise impact, and counter-clockwise will raise sight and lower impact.
10. Repeat steps 4 through 9 until impact matches bull's-eye. Your sight is now zeroed.
11. Set elevation knob back to 8/3 or 6/3 low and flip aperture back to 0-2 for ranges of 0-
200 m.
BATTLESIGHT ZERO

TO ZERO THE RIFLE,YOU MUST HAVE THE FRONT SIGHT (ELEVATION) AND THE REAR SIGHT
(WINDAGE) ADJUSTED SO THAT IT CAN HIT YOUR POINT OF AIM AT A GIVEN RANGE.
NOTE:
To battlesight zero your rifle, you adjust your sights so you can hit an aiming point at 250
meters. Zeroing can also be accomplished on a 25 meter range by adjusting the sights so
that the bullet will strike 2.4 centimeters below the point of aim.
