Lazer Bore Sighter?

[Johnny Bravo]

A friend of mine asked me about using a lazer bore sighter. He said they come in the same caliber of the gun your sighting in. Any of you know anything about them? Thanks

 I've seen two different types , the first uses a tapered tail to fit in the muzzle of any caliber gun, the other is a laser pointer in a dummy cartridge,

I have the LaserLyte Boresight, it has "toggle" style inserts for a variety of calibers. It inserts into the barrel, rotates to snug and works better in a large indoor warehouse or garage, with a rest.

When I installed my P4 NcStar Scope on my Sig556, I was inside our large covered shop. With a bench and rest, it turns on, and by looking through the optics, at a given range, say 50yds, you can "walk" the scope to the bore.

I was high and right, but very close. Crosshairs to red dot. When I got to the range for live fire, it was windy and some windage adj. was necessary, but I was on the black right away, and after a few adj. in the 10ring. YMMV, but for a "Black Rifle" even some pistols, they work fine.

Of course you can always "zero" at twilight or a cloudy day, as full sun makes the "target" hard to spot at anything past 25-50 yds.

It got my rifle very close, in short order. If your planning it for a long range rifle, you'll need the light right, preferably dim.

Hope this helps. It is just my .02 cents, but it did help.

I have one that can fit in any bore. Its been good and can put any rifle on target. .

They have bore arbors that go over the smaller caliber for rifle cartridges and I've seen individual sizes for pistols and revolvers that are caliber specific.

I was thinking about one for the 1911, about 40 bucks.
