In the spirit of run what ya brung........i am going to a pistol silhouette match this weekend with what I have

Smith and Wesson Performance Center 5906 (mega accurate)

It is sighted in at 25 yards for zero

what will be the holdover for each yardage.......I dont want to adjust the sights on this gun

It depends on your bullet weight, ballistic coefficient and velocity.  Plug those numbers into Sierra Bullet's Infinity VI program if you have it or any other good ballistic program.  There are probably some that are web based you can use.

We have an unofficial entry contest here in Grants Pass, OR each year.  We call it Standard Handgun.  Shoot a FP-P entry with any revolver or semi-auto with a barrel length of 6 1/2 inches or less and don't adjust the sights.  So far, the top score is 28 with a S&W 686.

The main thing is to have fun!

Let us know how things went after the match.
