Guys:

Have been doing some train the trainer with NCOs and Officers from 2 CR (SBCT). Brand new M-4s with the issued BUIS and 68's.

The BUIS that the Army is issuing is calibrated in hundreds of meters for elevation. 300 then a line across the elevation indicator. I take it that the line is the zero mark for 300?

Not that it matters particularly as these BUIS are poorly made and are prone to breaking but I really do want to know and I can't find the little TM that comes with them.

OK guys -- what is it for zero on these things -- the 300 or the line under the 300 marking?

Oh yes -- I zero the guys at 300 -- I don't care for zeroing at reduced ranges.

Thank you
