Nothing needed.and was wondering if any one had any good tips on what to get.
Definitely +1. You can do it in your back yard, set your sighting target up at 20 yards, and you'll most likely be on paper at 100, where you zero it.Nothing needed.
Remove bolt, secure gun to a bench, table etc. and look through the bore and find your target bullseye, or any item you can clearly see through it at whatever distance you want to 'sight in ' at.
Find the item in you scope and Adjust cross hairs to center on the object. Done deal.
Oh man I too have heard about this more than a few times!Too many tales of people going hunting, having had the optic "sighted in" at the gunshop and never firing a round before missing the trophy buck....
That's because you have skill.Oh man I too have heard about this more than a few times!
However probably a 1 in a million chance on this. I bought a new Nikon scope a few years ago for an old 'kit built' Mauser ,243 Win, mounted it, did a 100 yard 'bore sight' down my driveway and looking at something on my neighbors property, zeroed the crosshairs and took the rifle to the range which happened to be a rare visit to COSSA.
Set a target at 100 yards, rest rifle, load a round and touch off - the round was perfectly centered about an 1" high - right where I wanted it!
And a fairly decent portable bench set up with a homemade rest that allows me to secure a rifle fairly well while looking through the barrel to zero the scope.That's because you have skill.
