Boresighting a muzzleloader??
I was just about ready to buy a boresighting lazer when I began wondering if it makes sense to boresight a muzzleloader. I have a Pedersoli replica of a Kentucky long rifle, percussion. In order to be as faithful as possible, Pedersoli made the rear sight fixed for elevation and you file the front sight. My thought was to get it showing a bit high, then start shooting. I began to become concerned about this as I thought about all the variations in powder load, pellets, etc.
So what do you all think?

Oops! I'm wrong, it'll show low and as I file it'll raise up. Just the opposite as adjusting the rear sight, like I've been used to! I THINK! At any rate, I have an e-mail from Pedersoli about which way it starts.
