I picked up a Swedish m41b a few weeks ago... SNIP

What kind of sights do you have on this rifle? What zero do you have in mind?

Rifle has iron sights and a 4x Weaver K4-60B. The plan was to use this as my delusional back up hunting rifle, but the stock and scope on my 30-06 Ruger American just broke sooooo that's fun haha.

I'm planning to trek around berry patches in the highway 2 area, so I'd be extremely shocked to see a shot more than 300 yards. (either way I'm limiting myself to sub 300 yard shots). For zero, I'm thinking of having my scope set to 200 yard zero, and iron sights to set to 100. The scope is old school sniper mount so you just move your head down to use the irons.

I'd zero at 200 and ignore the irons. Just because you can use them doesn't make it a good idea.
