screwdriver before you begin shooting.

If you have carefully boresighted or used a collimator with a new rifle or scope, you can skip a preliminary shooting session at 25 yards to “get on paper.” Otherwise, getting close at short range is highly recommended since you could miss the entire target at longer ranges.

Next, put a target at 100 yards, and fire three or four rounds off the bench. From the center of this group measure the distance both vertically and horizontally to the bull’s-eye. Now, adjust your sights accordingly, moving the rear sight or scope adjustments in the same direction you wish to move the group so that it will be on target.

Hunting with a well-sighted rifle is basic to this season’s success. For no matter w’hat else happens, it will all come down to one shot and your ability to put it where it needs to go.
