Spoiler alert: it doesn’t matter! 25 yards 50 yards 1 million yards? Go with whatever works for you but if you’re still interested here’s what I do and why Thanks for watching people I hope I see ya on the range!
I got a beat up 10-22 at a pawn shop I put a bx trigger in it a 35 dollar scope it shoots one ragged hole at 25 yards I have about 200 hundred dollars in it
The double the distance of a 50 yard zero shows a windage mistake in your zero better than. 25 yard zero will. Just make sure your record you comeups and run with it.
I have never been to a match yet where a 25yd berm or target board has been. EVERY match I've been to has had a 50yd berm or target board. Not saying you can't bring your own stuff to zero. But considering most matches supply paper and bulls and time to check....I see no reason not to fall back on that.
