[QUOTE="Harry Knutz, post: 2592640, member: 123671"] Set your rifle up on the bench, Pull your bolt out, Look through the bore at your target, Position the rifle where when you are not touching it, The rifle bore is centered on a round target. Then raise your head up and look at the crosshairs, You can then re-adjust your crosshairs until the crosshairs are centered on the target and so is your bore. It's quite simple and many times you will find yourself at least in the 10 ring if not in the X. The adjustments will react exactly the opposite of what they say on the turrets, Because while shooting, A counter-clockwise adjustment on the elevation knob will cause your impact to move up, So when adjusting your crosshairs while looking through the bore, It will move the crosshairs down. This is bore-sighting the old way, It can be done on an AR upper also, If you remove the upper from the lower, And remove the bolt, And steady the upper on bags to center the bore, Hope this helps.
