they should bring iron sights back to these hunting rifles

A laser bore sighter is like $7 on Amazon , I can do it in my home at 30 ft away without setting up a target etc outside , did this the other day and hit a 12 inch target at 100 yards the next day and made adjustments. But if u have a range already outside then u may as well do what he did! Plus it’s good information to know in a crisis situation or war situation … so thanks for the knowledge!

I like to use the corner of the target stand if I'm at the range. If im at home I use the corner edge of my neighbor's house across the street. Its bout 50 yards away .

Been doing it that way for 40yrs. Easy and gets you very close. But now I use cartridge specific lasers since they are finally affordable.

You actually need to go up and left, as you are moving your bore to the reticle when you dial, not moving the reticle to the bore. Always remember you are moving the bullet to your poa.

The further away your bore sight target is, the more exact the process can be. But bore sighting can only be done with firearms where the bolt can be removed and you can see straight through the barrel. That lets lever actions, pumps actions, and standard hunting semi-autos out. Then it's laser or bore sighting tool that mounts on the end of the barrel time.

Bore sighting has the potential to be very precise, especially when done at a longer distance. At my 100 yd target butt, I have an old car tire hanging on a post. Center it perfectly in the bore and you will see 3 rings. Make sure they are all concentric. Determine which way you need to move the reticle. But here's the thing. You must turn the dials the opposite way you want the bullet to go. You eventually learn this pretty fast. Using at least 100 yds distance and a round target that fills the bore, many times my first shot is within an inch or two of dead center @ 100 yds. Then, precise zeroing is easy. Thanks for the vid!

I never bore sight since I have to confirm anyways. Maybe I use a few extra rounds. But this got me thinking you could do this with an ar style upper without the bcg too, I think. Don’t know why I never put that together until now. Thanks for the video.

I was first trained on the 1960's m16 long Vietnam Era and with plain iron sites and that skill and ability to site and calibrate the irons has been invaluable. It's heavy, it's clunky and going from that to the m16 a2 & a4 to the m4 carbine was a pleasure compared to my first training. Funny story, I was IDF SF and used to lose my weekends all the time in the beginning and once spent the weekend taking the screws out of the Vietnam Era butt that they put in to stop ppl hiding stuff in the little compartment. My dumb ass thought I'd find Vietnam Era stash to make the weekend stop dragging. I lost the next 3 weekends when they noticed everyone who was pulling guard duty or on punishment on base had loose screws where it should have been sealed lol

Did this on my cantilever shotgun barrel off the gun, bore sight it at 15 yard and just waiting for sabot ammo to hit the store before actually sighting at 50 yard

Thanyou for that...moa.

I stopped doing this and switched to using a laser bore sight and the farthest wall in my house, even though it’s only like 15 yards if even it still gets my windage perfect and once you set up on 100 it’s not that far off you can be zeroed to 100 in like 2-3 shots, it’s saved me a ton of time and effort

Easy peasy put laser in bore aim at target and use your adjusters up down left right move until the laser dot is in the middle of your cross hair right in the middle

True I'm an older fella but I think it's time to stop belittling each other cause we're from different generations. We live together here on God's green earth, we should pass enough Wisdom, knowledge, and skills that we can pass to the younger generation so that they may build a better world.

Beautiful Knight muzzleloader. I have that same rifle 👍

Very cool idea I never considered. Altho 6 rifles I have only 2 have removable bolts.

I love this method they also have nifty little cartridges now that have a laser in them they work pretty good as well for cheap

Thanks for the good information.😊

This also works on AR-15 style rifles and fals if you take the upper off then the bolt

Yep that’s how I’ve don’t it for over 40yrs I just bought me one of those gizmos that goes into the end of the barrel to see how it does but I’ll prob end up throwing it back in the bag and doing it old school lol

Look at you…. tricky tricky I like that

Forgive the question… I’ve not sighted anything like this before. Would this work with a laser bore sight? Picked up a bolt action rifle and scope but am very new to all of this.

Not once ever bore sighted or used a laser bore sight. Throw on my optic, take the first shot, always been on paper. Bring it in from there. No more than 3-5 shots

Or you can fire a round at the target then move your crosshairs to the hole

Yesterday, me and my dad waisted 35ish rounds of 6.5 cm, to center the gun. We should of done this in the first place😂

25 yrds works good. Try 50 yrds wayyyy better very minimal adjustment for 100 yrd zero

Now...At point of "Impact". Don't touch your rifle except your scope. Now adjust your scope to the "Paper BullsEye" now.

@hopefullbalistics are yu adjusting at max magnification or on 1x? Great video btw 👍🏾

That is brilliant, pointing a lazer in the barrel that way would get you way closer right?

I think a bore laser is a better idea. But cool idea

Just start at 100 it's easy

Good weapon for hunting my bro

How do you prevent the gun from moving as you move from looking through the poor to dialing in the scope?

started at roosevelt st

Yo I do the same thing but I do it at night and have a tiny red light I put out there

I can dig on a good teacher thanks

That's how I do it

how do you do that with a semi auto

Up and left

What about shooting first? See where the bullet Hit set the scope where the bullet landed

4 more clicks down 2 clicks to the right .

93% of hunters south of Michigan will never need a scope for hunting. Bring back iron sights.

Yeap.

I've been doing this since I was 9. Is that a Boyd's stock ?

What rifle and caliber is that?

Put a lazer inside it will be much easier

Hey what way do I go to site down

What the hell are those scope rings?

can assault rifles bore sight?

😅🤭

Get a lazar round

This is incredibly pointless. First off, "boresighting" only works if you can remove the action from your rifle AND look down the chamber and bore. Your bore has no parallax either, meaning the position of your eye can effect where your bore is pointing in negative relation to your optic. Finally, if you can afford a decent optic you can afford a fifty dollar laser bore sight. I've shot two, three round groups before to zero my optic using a laser bore sight in the past. This is some good ol' boi science, right here

喔以為瞄那裡打那裡？

If you shoot with a scope you're cheating.

Or use a laser

Really

Why would you do this over just shooting a bullet and starting from there?

2 shot zero works better

Ewww MOA
