[QUOTE="dsculley, post: 1571869, member: 77514"] On a scope, when you turn the vertical turret to lower the point of impact as it relates to the reticle you are actually raising reticle. When you turn the turret to raise the point of impact you are lowering the reticle. According to your first post, the point of impact was 2" below the reticle. All that is needed is to turn the turret to raise the point of impact. You can use a ballistics program to find where your bullet first cross the line of site, usually somewhere near 30 yds or so. The laser bore sighter works best at this range. If you reticle and the laser align at this range, you should be near perfect at 100 yds. [/QUOTE]
