In the zeroing procedure, which target is used to adjust windage?

• A. Target 2
• B. Target 3
• C. Target 1
• D. Target 4

Answer: (C)

Windage is the horizontal adjustment of your sights to move the point of impact left or right. In a zeroing sequence, you separate horizontal and vertical tuning so each axis is measured clearly. The target chosen for windage is the one that lets you directly read and correct horizontal deviation without mixing in vertical changes. Target 1 is used for this step because it provides a clear, straight reference for left–right alignment, so you adjust the windage until the shots center horizontally on that target. After windage is set, you would use the other targets to verify elevation and confirm the overall zero.
