Hey guys,
Quick question here regarding the Eotech EXPS3-4 paired with a G33 Magnifier. I have used eotechs and aimpoints for a while now, but have never once used them with a magnifier. I usually have my 5.56 rifles zero'd at 100 yards, therefore when shooting up close I use the hold-over method. (At 25 yards, my red dot will usually be placed around 1.5" above what i want to hit, so on and so forth).
SO for my question. I recently purchased an EXPS3-4 and G33 combo. If I sight my EXPS3-4 in at 100 yards like my other red dots, does the magnifier change the POI at all? Or when I flip up the magnifier into the magnifying position, will I still be sighted in at 100 yards?
Basically my main question is does the magnifier change anything at all, or does it literally just magnify what im seeing and have no negative/adverse affects on the already zero'd red dot?
A secondary question is, if I am engaging a target out at 100 yards while magnified, and i make a quick change to a closer target (lets say 25 yards for S's and G's) while STILL MAGNIFIED will I still use a hold-over method of 1.5" above the area I want to hit, or does being magnified at a closer distance have negative/adverse affects on my hold-over?
Thanks so much for your help, this is a new concept to me and I want to get my head wrapped around it before I waste some time at the range.
