How to Properly Zero the XGA HS507K Red Dot Sight ($119 Value)

Installing an optics-ready red dot on your subcompact concealed carry handgun is only the first step—properly zeroing it ensures that your point of aim equals your point of impact when every fraction of a second counts.

Whether you are mounting the XGA HS507K Micro Red Dot Sight ($119.00) to a Sig Sauer P365, Springfield Hellcat, or Taurus GX4, follow this simple step-by-step guide to achieve a perfect zero.

Pre-Zeroing Setup: Mounting & Torquing

Before heading to the range, ensure your XGA HS507K is mounted correctly:

1. Clean the Cut: Ensure your handgun’s K-footprint slide cut is free of oil and debris.

2. Proper Alignment: Situate the XGA HS507K flush against the slide.

3. Torque Spec: Tighten the mounting screws evenly using threadlocker to prevent loosening under heavy slide vibration.

Step-by-Step Zeroing Procedure (15 Yards)

For subcompact concealed carry handguns, a 15-yard zero offers the ideal balance for defensive distances.

• Step 1: Set Up a Steady Rest

  Bench-rest your handgun on a sandbag or range block to eliminate body movement.

• Step 2: Fire a 3-Round Group

  Aim at the center of the target, hold a steady trigger pull, and fire 3 slow rounds.

• Step 3: Calculate Turret Adjustments

  Locate your elevation (top) and windage (right side) turrets. Adjust according to your impact group:

  • Impact is Low: Turn elevation turret counter-clockwise (Up).

  • Impact is High: Turn elevation turret clockwise (Down).

  • Impact is Left: Turn windage turret counter-clockwise (Right).

  • Impact is Right: Turn windage turret clockwise (Left).

• Step 4: Confirm Grouping

  Fire another 3-round group to confirm your reticle aligns precisely with the point of impact.

Tested Zero Retention Against Hard Impact

Subcompact slide recoil is sharp and rapid. Cheap optics often lose zero after a few dozen rounds due to loose internal gearing.

The XGA HS507K is built with precision 1 MOA click turrets and housed in aircraft-grade aluminum. In factory durability tests, the XGA HS507K undergoes direct hard-impact testing—including being struck against solid wood blocks—without losing zero retention or reticle clarity.
