When your sight is properly zeroed in you can be sure it will match the bullet’s point of impact out of the barrel.

Zeroing-in, or sighting in, is the process of aligning the sights on the weapon with the rifle so the shooter can accurately aim at their target from a set distance. Like any other sight, holographic sights need to zeroed-in. Plus, with a holographic sight, the aiming dot doesn’t expand when viewed with magnification, offering much greater precision. (Larger dot can compromise the shooter’s field of view). It provides the best compromise between speed and accuracy. They feature a 68 MOA ring with a 1 MOA dot, which is the finest dot available in any optic. This gives the shooter enhanced peripheral vision that is almost completely unobstructed. They usually feature a semi-squared shape design that offers a much wider field of view. Holographic sights offer some advantages when compared to reflex sight: The reticle uses collimated light so the sight has an aim point that can move with the eye position. The reticle is recorded in three-dimensional space onto a holographic film that is part of the optical viewing window. Unlike reflex sights, a holographic sight doesn’t use a reflected reticle system. Their holographic weapon sights for small arms have been adopted by various military and law enforcement agencies. EOTech, a division of L-3 Communication (among the largest defense companies in the U.S.) delivers technology and products in the field of holographic sighting systems, tactical laser, and imaging equipment.
