[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 963386, member: 6064"] The sight (red dot aiming point) is now much higher than the bore of the pistol, seems to me around 2" or so instead of .3" or so. When you zero the sight at 10 yards/15 yards, you are in effect pointing the barrel up so the bullet will intersect the line of sight at that short distance, what you are seeing when you get to 25 yards is the bullet is now above the sight plain, and I would imagine for most pistols it will once again intersect the sight plain around 60 yards or so. It is the sight offset that causes this phenomenon. KurtM [/QUOTE]
