[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1523379, member: 87243"] I never use a laser boresighter, they are pretty much a waste of money. As the previous poster said, make sure your gun is unloaded and get the gun solid and find something to point the bore at, it can be anywhere between 100 yards out to as far as you want. I prefer the cross section of a specific telephone pole I can see out the window of my house on a barren hillside a few hundred yards away. Take the bolt out and ensure unloaded again, and center your target in the bore with your eyes. Then make the crosshairs point at the same thing. Double check a few times. This method has always got me on a 8x11 sheet of paper (usually within 2-3 inches) at 100 yards, takes about 5 minutes, didn't cost me any money, and is accurate. In rare cases where your not able to see through the bore (10/22, lever guns, etc.) Just set up a target at 25 yards and fire one shot and adjust then your ready to shoot out farther for zeroing.
