I have an AK underfolder in 7.62x39 with a Texas Weapon System Dog Leg rail and the rear peep replacing the leaf sight. Going to the range to zero the peep and then the red dot tomorrow. I'll be using the Herter's 123 grain hollow point round. The front sight post is adjustable for elevation and windage but the peep doesn't have 100 meter settings like the leaf so I'm not sure how to battle sight zero it. If I zero at the 25 yard range where should the bullet impact the target to get the 300 yard battle sight zero? I tried some ballistics calculators but I guess I'm just not getting it. Any help is appreciated guys as I've never zeroed with anything but the original AK leafs and with those I did it on the 1 setting at the 100 yard range.
