I don't know... Isn't that the exact setup that guy on here was going to use to split a deck of playing cards at 1,000 yards? I believe that was the gear given to him when he was called to do those things only certain people know about...

Lol, I'm sorry. Just reminded me of that thread

As far as sighting in...
Whatever floats your boat. There are some ways that take a few less shots... If it doesn't bother you and is just a few ( 3-4)... I would say just enjoy the fact your pulling a trigger and things are going bang...

watched a guy dump 40 rounds of ammo and still not have the gun sighted in...

Re: 4 round sight in ..... why do people fight this.

I seen a guy once................... Try to sight in his AR............................. I tried to tell him bump firing was not the correct way to get a 100 yard zero................................. What an idiot

I once saw a guy dump a brand new box of
Titelist Pro V1's on a public driving range and hit them out there with all the beat up, striped Pinnacles.

What a dumbass. I guess the other 5% of the time he just gives up and says "Ah shit, I'll try again tomorrow. My Barska must not be feeling good today."

Heard this one at the range recently....."I'll take it to Gander Mountain and have them bore sight it...." Now that is saving ammo.

I mean you have to work up to such long distances after all. Well yeah because by the time you get all the way out to 100 yards with a Red Jacket precision rifle you are at the limits of the weapon.

I'm sorry to flame you, but you are a moron. Please keep digging. I love it when you refer to our 'comprehension level' while having a loose grasp on spelling, sentence structure, punctuation, and the English language.

Plus you waste a shit ton of cash zeroing a rifle.

Re: 4 round sight in ..... why do people fight this.

Maybe I missed it.

I didn't read anywhere where the OP explains how in blue hell it's any of his business how many of my rounds I shoot at my target out of my gun.

Operative word being MY.

My rounds, my target, my gun.

Until you are paying for any of the items in that equation, it's none of your business how I sight my rifle in .

bump....for.....a......good......zero.......method

Re: 4 round sight in ..... why do people fight this.

If a guy needed 30 rounds to zero his rifle it wasn't because he was trying to do it at 100 yards. It was because he was, in fact, an idiot. Probably would have had the same result at 25 yards.

Using the example set by an idiot doesn't validate your time and ammo wasting method. I've never had to fire more than 3 rounds to zero my rifles at 100 yards with a simple down the bore boresighting. This isn't because I'm some "expert." I just used some simple common sense

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: MontanaMarine</div><div class="ubbcode-body">On a proper benchrest, with the rifle bagged/supported snug, I've done one-round sight in at 100.

Bore sight, fire one round, look through scope and dial turrets to center reticle on the bullet hole.

More than one way to get it done. </div></div>

That is the way I do it aa well, works well with a .308 and a 14+ power scope. I can't seem to do that with my .223 though.

Trying to figure this one out....how does cant come in to play? if i line up the POA (reticle) and the bore at the same spot, cant is irrelevant. not saying the guy didn't launch one but it wasn't bc of the cant.

You now say the people on here are experts, etc but called everyone morons initially but you still want to stick with your method of wasting time and ammo sighting in a rifle. </div></div>

Are we the only two that has noticed this comment? Should ruin all credibility with this comment alone. </div></div>

I sure would like the OP to explain this for us. </div></div>

The OP has not explained this, but it really is not that hard to explain. The OP once saw a guy launch a bullet over a 100 yard berm when trying to sight in his gun. The gun had a 20 MOA rail on it. The OP either assumed that the shooter bore sighted the gun at 100 yards or changed the story to have the shooter bore sight the gun at 100 yards. In actuality- if this story has any basis in reality- the shooter likely did not bore sight the gun, but merely started with the mechanical zero from the factory. In this case it would be possible to vastly overestimate the range (with a canted rail) and launch a bullet over the berm. The other possibility is that the shooter was not familiar with how to bore sight the gun and muffed it up badly. Either way, if properly bore sighted at a specific distance, the point of impact should not be affected by the presence of a canted rail.

Re: 4 round sight in ..... why do people fight this.


I have shot a couple of shots & done the 25yd zero thing , and then stepped straight out to 800yds and hit , Opps , just lucky .
I normally bore sight in at 100 with most good quality scopes & rifles etc , but with cheapo scopes I close up to 50 to start with , it all depends on your gear etc .
that was with the data in the M40A1 manual , as I was using a MST-100 scope .
