Default RE: Steps to sighting in a rifle

ORIGINAL: stubblejumper

1)I boresight the rifle.
2)I fire a three shot group at 100 yards.
3)I adjust the scope to move the point of impact where I want it to be.
4)I fire a three shot group.
5)I readjust the scope if necessary.
I agree with one exception. I fire a shot or two at 25 yards after boresighting to verify the boresighting job. This keeps me from wasting shots at 100 yards. Which I used to do occasionally.
