Default RE: Post Your Do's and Don'ts of Sighting in a Rifle.

I do the 3 shot groups then go look to see where they are hitting on the paper. I circle each hole and mark it with a number :ie first group shot Marked #1 2nd shot group #2. This helps in alot of ways.

You get to see if groups are getting tighter or spreading out as well as where the shots are moving to.

To me (my prefrence) is to have good groups all hitting in same place then Zero in scope. It may take 6-9 shots before i move my scope once.

Hunt for the sport, share the outdoors and most of all be safe and enjoy it......know your
back stop when shooting!!
