I tried to use different STANAG guns (M4/L85/G36C) with a suppressor and ACOG scope and I must say they are pretty useless the way they are zeroed.

The only useful ranged STANAG SD so far is the G36K SD.

This is for the following reason:
The non-SD G36K has 2 different scopes; one reddot and one ranged scope.
The reddot is zeroed to 100m, the ranged sight to 200m (it says so ingame in the top right, I tested it ingame and it is supposed to be this way in real life).
This copies over to the G36K SD meaning your SD ammo also hits on 100m with the reddot and 200m with the ranged sight, which I found very useful.

The problem with all other STANAG guns is, that they are zeroed to 300m in the original non-SD version (which is perfectly fine) but this zeroing is copied over by ARMA to the SD version and makes combat in ranges of 100m-200m very uncomfortable.

Therefore I suggest to zero SD ACOG guns to 200m or maybe even 150m to make them more useful in medium range. Just like the G36K-SD ranged scope.

Streatman tells me this is possible and only has to be done.

There is an error currently with the newly introduced L85-SD having ironsights, Holo, and CCO zeroed to 300. Streatman will fix this zeroing to 100m like the other guns in the next patch.

I suppose there is a smiliar issue with the AK-74 but I haven't tested those yet. I guess a zeroing of 100m for ironsights and Kobra sight and a zeroing of 200m for the PSO sight would be great here as well.

Would be great if crossbow CCO zeroing got looked in to as well since that weapon becomes extremly weak above 100m range. And the "bulletdrop" is extreme. CCO is currently a downgrade for the crossbow since you will always be zeroed wrong.
