Ok for those that had great luck with gun store boar sitting you scope and or Red Dot.
This is not for you.
Now for the less fortunate, I have a new apprecation for you guys, as I am now one of you.
Yep that's right went to gun store for a boar site on not only a new Zeiss scope, but also on a canted Bushnell Red Dot.
What a PITA. Both of them were off by a country mile, we maybe not a mile, but Holy S**T.
Started at less than 25yds for Red Dot, my target is 38 high x 24 with splatter target. It was 24 inchs or more off point, guy told me it about 4 from center
Dam 20 rounds to get in there, then moved out to 40 another 10 to tweek it in, OK Im GTG now.
On to the scope, the guy tells me it's real close, So I start at 50 yds.
Holy crap, we are so far off I don't even know where I hitting.
After screwing around with it 7 GGM rounds. I'm am bummed out.
Call another guy from far end of range ask if he mite help out, he say sure.
I tell him that it's new rifle new optics and how it's been going, ask if he'll spot for me. He says sure. then looks at me an say would you like me to shot it and you spot, I say sure, and we proceed. He fires first round, I'm seeing the hit way way far right and way high, Pull it left 24 down 20.
We send another bingo we are now just touching the far upper right corner. Now left 24 Down 24. send it now we get close to paper.
Down 30 left 4. I now send it eureka finally got some good paper, down another 20 send it 2'' right of center on the horizontal.
Bingi
couple small adjustments and we are in, but target is only 50 yds
I tell the guy thanks for the assistance, but have run through 2.5 box's of low price ammo, and 3/4 plus box of Fed GM.
Will finish another day, got things to do.
Morel at least for me is get a spotter when you start, and save some ammo ! As you cant see where your off paper hits are when your not on paper !
This is not for you.
