Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of a green laser bore sighter over a red one?

Green laser bore sighters, like the Wolfroad model reviewed, are significantly brighter than red lasers. This enhanced visibility makes them much more practical for zeroing firearms in daylight conditions, even at moderate distances.

How does the Wolfroad Green Laser Bore Sighter improve upon older models?

The new Wolfroad green laser bore sighter uses a more powerful 5mW green laser for better visibility and a CR2 lithium battery, which lasts longer and is more reliable than the small button batteries in older red laser models.

What is the effective range and visibility of the Wolfroad Green Laser Bore Sighter?

The reviewer found the green laser dot to be easily visible and useful for zeroing firearms out to 100 yards, even against a dark steel backstop. Visibility is generally good, though direct, bright sunlight might require creating shade.

How do you install and use a laser bore sighter like the Wolfroad model?

Insert the CR2 battery, then gently place the bore sighter rod into the firearm's muzzle using the correct caliber plug. The laser activates upon battery contact. Align your optic's reticle with the projected dot at your desired zeroing distance.
