A friend just bought a new scope which I fitted for him. It is a Sako and we used Lynx dovetail bases. same as Leupold. The rings are pillar mounted with two screws from either side for some gross windage correction.
I put the scope on, laid it in the gunholder and boresighted to 25 yds. Used the pillar screws for windage and then dialed elevation.
Pulled the trigger on a round.... dead nuts in the bull.
Took her to 100 m and pulled the trigger. 1/4 inch of the bull. Two more rounds to check. said here is your rifle...never needed to touch the dials!!!!!!
That will never happen again!! Edited by 8shots - June/24/2010 at 09:36 |

This is how I sight in all my guns. Bore sight, then 2 shots to zero one to verify. 3 shots is all it ever takes.

Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.

I also use this method, just that this time I did not had to do any dialling. I kept my cool and told the guy that is how I allways do it and I cannot understand all the fuss about sighting a scope!!!
