    Thanks for the review. You mentioned it was shooting high and the front sight covered the target- what if you zero'ed it for a 6 o'clock hold where the point of impact is just on top of the front sight rather than behind it? Would it still be shooting too high?

    Thanks

    I actually used to zero my M16 this way when we used Iron Sights for annual qualification. It is much easier to see your target this way since the front sight post would appear so much larger than the target at extended range (i.e. 200, 300, and 500yds). I've always qualed expert on the Marine Corps course of fire. It's a little different with the Trijicon ACOG however. Definitely not a match style scope so determining hold is always interesting.
