50 yard zero shooting high

Hello,

I am using a scope sitting in a 1.93 mount on my 16" AR.

I confirmed the zero to 50 yards with 55 grain. When shooting a target 150 yards away my POI was 1.5-2 feet high .

The goal is a 50 yard zero that would stay rather consistent out to 200 +/- 4 inches or so.

Would the 1.93 optic mount be causing this? I've never had this issue with a 50 yard zero before.

Thanks!

At 150 yards should be around 2 inches high. Assuming ar15 in 5.56

If you were legitimately feet high, something is broken.
Yikes. I'll have to do some more testing this weekend , thanks!

Edit : Mounting was improper. Thanks for the responses!
