theinvisiblescarecrow 0 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Many regard a bore sighter as a waste of time & money, don't need one wont use one. My opinion untill recently when I realised over the years a bore sighter would have saved me alot of grief. Off set mounts, poorly or non existant scope adjustment faults would of shown up instantly with a bore sighter. To zero a scope all you have to do is select the correct rod to fit your bore, fit to the barrel, look throught your scope, set you cross hair to the grid in the bore sigher & the rough zero is done. I found I need to set high when a check is done when you finnish the zero on paper. Checks & rough zero can be done easily without fireing a shot. I regard a bore sighter as a tool that might not get used often but will be glad of it when needed. Just note the settings & if the scope is disturbed at all a check is instant. You get special tools got cars, DIY, gardening etc. Why should shooting be any different. VFM ? well I swop scopes & rifles every now & then so it will get used. Well made it'll outlast my guns. For me VFM, yes. Many will think no way useless & expensive. A few though will think I'll check them out, looks handy. Quote Link to post
