As for Zeroing, my suggestion is zeroeing the average distance that you will be engaging, that depends on the level upgrade you are using, for level 2 upgrade, using a 200% spring, and .36 bb's, zeroing at 30-35 meters is reasonable, I havent zeroed my APS in a long time as it isnt needed everytime I bring it out, what I do is fire a few bb's for Chornoing and a few to see where I stand, if the bb's go left or right I adjust accordingly. I usually go to an indoor place and ensure the scope is where I want it to be

My recomendation when it comes to zeroing your scope is indoors, indoors is the best place to do that, as there are no elements that will affect the trajectory of the bb, first zero at aprox 30-35m, once satisfied, move back another 5 meters and repeat till the range is ineffective, note down in your book or a piece of paper for future reference.

Another thing to keep in mind is elevation. this applies for urban ops where structures are present. You would not want to zero your rifle from a higher elevation than where the target is. You want to zero the weapon roughly the same level as the target because when you are at a higher elevation from the target the range is actually greater than being on the ground. The eye tends to misinterpret the distance. This is crucial when one is operating in an urban terrain, as you may think you are 35 meters away, that is correct if you were on ground, but when you are higher that distance increases to lets say 45m.

There are so many factors that affect the bb's travel from the point it leaves the muzzle to the point it reaches the intended target.
