This video details the critical process of 'truing' a ballistic calculator, emphasizing that simply inputting data is insufficient. The instructor demonstrates how to physically adjust scope turrets to match the calculator's predicted impact at a specific range, then uses this real-world data to refine the calculator's parameters. The process involves shooting at known distances, observing POI, and making adjustments to elevation and windage to ensure the calculator accurately reflects the rifle's actual performance.

This guide details how to bore sight firearms using the CVLife 32-piece adapter laser bore sighter kit, as demonstrated by Moondog 2A.
