I used a nifty program offered by Remington to calculatebullet impact points for my AR15. This is necessary because I have a red dot scope mounted on the carry handle, which puts the dot about 4" above the rifle bore. Due to this height difference, a zeroed shot at 50 yards will be way high at 150 yards. (The rifle bore being 4" lower than dot causes rifle to shoot slightly upward to compensate for 4" sight difference, which is amplified over greater distances until gravity pulls bullet trajectory back to earth.)

Program is here
