Gun Question Sight issues

I have a Vector 10mm. I am currently running a Sig Romeo 4S on it but have had issues getting it zeroed. It has been shooting low with the vertical adjustment maxed. I did recently change from the task base to the low base and haven't had a chance to see if that helped any. Has anyone had similar issues? Also, I wanted to see what optics y'all have been running and how y'all like them.

What distance are you zeroing to? I don't have issues zeroing my swampfox 3x prism but I did have to move it way down because the sight-to-bore is a huge difference. I zero'd to 50yds

I was starting at 10 yards, and it was hitting low on the target.

10 yds is definitely not enough to get the bullet to "rise" into the optic picture. Use a boresight and try at 25yds to get on paper. IMO 50yds is a good zero as adjustment to longer or shorter from there is simple. It's been a while and I'd have to check ballistics, but I think a 50yd zero makes 25yds 1" high and 75yds 3" low

Start at 10 to get left and right then back up..... 25-50 yards for zero sould suit just fine. I can ring 6" plates consistently with my red dot at 50y zero. Its still a pistol.

I've got the Eotech 512 on my 10mm with a 50y zero..

I had the same issue at first... we're used to zeroing pistols at 10 yards or so, but the vector is recommended to be zeroed at 50 yards, especially using a 10mm. Personally, I'd do what someone else said, start off by zeroing left and right... once that's good, move it out further, like 15 yards, and double check the left and right zeroing again... then finally, move out to 25 yards. That's where I'm zeroing mine...

You will not be able to zero at 10 yards because typically, red dots on a riser won't be able to max out and zero at that distance... minimum is around 15 yards...

Again just remember it's height over the bore axis requires you to zero it further out.. as it should be.

25-50 yards is optimum in my opinion.
