Id be lying if I said I didnt almost dread doing it every single time.
Buying a new gun, anew scope and getting it all mounted upcan be very exciting.
For starters, having quality equipment makes this easier and faster.
In other words, a target with no bullet holes.
Having no weak links is going to give you consistency, which is king.
confirm you power your scope up so you might introduce as much shadow as possible to test this out.
Keep moving it until that disappears.
Next, Grant suggests a naked bore sighting of your gun.
you’re free to do this at different distances if you gotta.
For our video, we did it at 100 yards.
Keep checking back and forth until you have it as close as possible.
Put your bolt back in and take a shot downrange.
The same goes for your windage adjustments.
Keep doing this until you are zeroed on the target.
Then it would be best to shoot a group on a clean target to confirm everything is solid.
Now, if you have old-school turret knobs like on a traditional scope, you are done.
Cap those babies up and head home.
You probably noticed your view behind the scope doesnt make sense anymore.
Dont fear, typically this is pretty easy to fix.
Youll just need to do that for windage and elevation.
Okay, now one last very important thing.
Dont let all your hard work go to waste!
Then write that down, and do that for both windage and elevation.
Here is why that is important.
Lets say somehow your knobs get turned.
Conclusion
Now you are officially done and your zero is protected.
Either way, you are set and hopefully, you no longer dread the sighting in process!
