I have seen this method before, and it does actually work. That's why I ruff bore sight them at 13 yards in the house, then shoot them at close distances, where I know they are going to at least hit paper.

I first learned this method over 30 years ago. Jim Charmichael wrote it in Outdoor life. I have used many times,it always works.

Ditto! When I showed theguys in myhunting club how to do it they were flabbergasted.

I've seen that also. I wonder if a variation of this method could be employed using a laser bore sight in an unscoped gun?

Well now - who do you think showed Jim Charmichael that trick.... Heck, my grandpa taught me that 45 years ago.
Yeoman - You just adjust the sight to just under the laser. Remember the laser travels in a straight line, but gravity starts affecting your bullet and it starts dropping immediately.
