I typically start at 50 yards....

If it's a bolt gun... take bolt out, look through back down through bore and put bore hole on bullseye, move crosshairs to bullseye. That should get you pretty good as a starting point. (obviously not moving the rifle by using a vise, or bipod and bags)

Use a rest or bipod.... Shoot and adjust until you can get it on paper. Once on paper, put crosshairs on bullseye and then adjust crosshairs to bullet hole. That will get you pretty close.

Yeah what he said. Start with a close target, not more than 50 yards then move it out as you get close to center mass on the target.

Just got one of these to test and eval for our dept. The one they sent would not hold zero. Piece of garbage, at least the one they sent. I've read reviews and it seems like these are hit or miss on holding zero. Some guys get a new one and it's fine. I hope yours works out.

Anybody here make their own shotgun butt stock before? I'm thinking about making a multi-wood species laminate butt stock.

I dabble in wood but haven't done anything like that.
Just sayin' if you do this project then start a thread. I'd like to follow along.
