Frequently Asked Questions

What is the first step when bore sighting a rifle?

The very first step is to ensure your firearm is clear and safe before working on it. This involves verifying that the chamber is empty and the magazine is removed to prevent any accidental discharges.

How do you use the Tactical Elite Sight 2.0 for bore sighting?

Insert the correct caliber tip into the Sight 2.0, tighten it, turn on your rifle's optic, then insert the bore sighter into the muzzle. Activate the laser and align it with your optic's reticle at a set distance, like 25 yards.

Why is bore sighting important for zeroing a rifle?

Bore sighting is crucial because it gets your optic very close to a zeroed state before you even fire a shot. This significantly reduces the amount of ammunition and time you'll need to spend at the range making final adjustments.

Can bore sighting replace live fire for zeroing?

No, bore sighting is a preliminary step and does not replace live fire. While it gets you very close, you must always confirm your zero with actual ammunition at your intended engagement distance to ensure accuracy.
