does this need to be sighted in to zero at 25 yards? or sighted in at all?

You need to make adjustments to get the laser where the shot goes, just like a rifle scope but at a closer range. If you have a laser bore sighter it will help for initial adjustment. Back off 25 feet get the laserlyte lined up with the bore sighter's mark. Make your final adjustments at the range.

Must be sighted in. It has instructions, but mine pointed to the wrong adjustment screws. Lucky for me I have used lasers before and knew which screws are used for windage and elevation. I love mine. Target acquisition is much faster with this laser. I use mine on a pistol.

25 yards is not the usual self defense distance. Sight it in at 7-10yards or less if you are using it for home defense.

I could not get it to fit my PPX at all. Personally I thought it was a piece of junk. Like Crimson Trace better, definitely get what you pay for. Take care.

Mine needed a little siting. But I was putting on a shotgun so didnt need it to be super aquerate

Yes. Once you get the yardage correct. With this sight you should hit 40 yards no problem.

as long as you can hold the rifle steady... It's a good site, but there's no magnification, so it took a while to sight in at 200 yards. Been rock solid since then though.

It's a laser bore sight. Say you buy a scope for your rifle and have to sight it in, you load this in the rifle just like a typical round, with the laser on, the laser goes through the barrel and adjust your scope to the laser to get close to where the rounds will hit. Obviously distance is a factor because the laser doesn't compensate for bullet drop. 25 yards is recommended for a laser bore sight

I would zero at 25 and then tweak at 50. This a good scope for 50 to 100 yards. I also have the P-223 3-9X40 for longer distances. I've read good things about the P-223, but haven't had much time to use them yet.

There is focus adjustment on the back end for adjusting ranges ... set it a 50 yards and mid-magnification and adjust if I need to for really close and over 100

I ask the staff at my local range and they say to zero in at 50 yards. After you zero in at 50 yards, you should be able to make those long range shot at 200 yard. Not so sure if this will work for the 300 yard range.

25 yards would prob be OK but any closer would be tough. Check the range of view specs for 3x power and that would prob be your min distence

No, I've only shot it on a pistol at 25 yards. I've never used it to shoot at something 100 yards away, but it is much brighter than my other, more expensive, red lasers that I have mounted on other pistols. (Crimson trace and Laser Max).

The parallax on this scope is set a one hundred yards so thats where it will focus in at. If you shooting at 25 yards you'll never get it to focus clearly. They do make scopes that will focus at all ranges but there designated as AO scopes and you pay a premium for that. I have this same scope in an AO version that I got from Optics Planet, Amazon doesn't appear to sell the AO version.

I asked my husband and he said yes as long as you get the tactical mount and then bore sight it afterwards to (I think he said) 25 yards?!? Good luck.

It is redisigned. So far it is true to form. There is no need to adjust for sights if at 25yards. Anything below that, then you need to take that into account on your aim.

Scope goes down to 25 yards on the side adjustment, and at 24 power that is accurate. However, down at 6 power I can focus at around 10 yards with mine. Great scope.

I mounted mine and zeroed it within 4-5 inches of bullseye. Ran over 50 rounds and it still held target. I might be wrong, but this site is good for 50 yards. After that, it would be best to use a scope.

I have mine sighted in out to 60 yards and it is very accurate at that range, so you may be able to shoot further but I have no need to.

It depends on the range and lighting conditions. If your target area is illuminated with direct sunlight, not so great. I had good luck late afternoon at about 50 and 75 yards. If you know the distance from the barrel to the centerline of the scope, just compensate for it and target it in at 25 yards. It's just to get you on the paper target. Good luck.

This adjustment is to help remove the peralex effect. It also can be use as a range find. That scope is a 400yds scope. U cant zero it for less than 100 yds
