I typically shoot a few groups at 10 and 15 yards every time I'm at the range. Lately I've been doing a 3-round walk back drill on a 3" square at 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, and 25 yards. I periodically attempt to shoot groups at 25, mostly for the opportunity to create "inventive combinations of curse words."
I recently swapped to some Trijicon HD's, and being the amateur gunsmith I am, I fought trying to tell/guess/hope that they are zeroed. Here's some at 25, using Walmart Federal and some American Eagle value pack. Gun is an M&P 9FS. Shooter is not good at 25.
Just to go ahead and set up an excuse, I was shooting in the woods in East Tennessee after a rain shower, and there was practically no way to keep my glasses from fogging.
So, I appear to be trending right. Hold seems okay-ish elevation-wise, lollipopping the bottom of the black. Let's shoot another one. Yep, still a little right.
Now, let's swap ammo, change from photochromic clear to photochromic red lenses, and try again. Well, that's helpful.
Here's one I shot at 10 yards, at a relatively brisk pace, right before I packed up. The flyer was the first round, go figure. I believe the sights are okay, but I'll have to play with it some more before I call it good. I don't really have anyone to help with diagnosis, nor do I know anyone who spends any time shooting at 25, so I can't really tell if the sights are off or if it's just me. That's what makes it all fun, I guess.
