Well This Just Happened, Easiest Sight In EVER!!!

Nice! I have done that with an M16 set to battle sight zero but never with a scope! I hate putting optics on things........Seems to cost me a lot of $$, then time and ammo.

Wow that's cool! I don't think I've ever been tickled like that with a setup of mine. Congratulations!. Don

AIR GUNS ARE FUN

That is almost depressing. I swear that it seems like it takes me a tin of pellets to sight in a new scope. Congrats on your good fortune. I hate you.

I did the same thing with a Thompson Center Encore in .243. I put my old beater Weaver 6x scope on punched out the x-ring at 25 yards! No adjustments! There was a clay bird in the berm at 300 yards,smoked it. Came home and went fishing.

Nice, I can barely do that on a good day with one already sighted in!

Or the crosshairs.

That happened to me once with a Ruger 10/22. I let a guy next to me at the range who had shown up with only a Mosin try it out and even he was impressed, asking me how long it took to sight it in. I told him it took only the time to clamp it down.

I've only had one gun sight in prefect, it was an AR 5.56 with a SS barrel.
I got it laser sighted first before going to the range. Then at the range I shot the first round it was just left of center, I cleaned the barrel like I do for break in. Shot the 2nd round, I didn't see where the bullet went because it still had one hole in the paper target. I cleaned the barrel again, loaded another round & fired the 3rd shot. Still only one hole in the target. I thought well I'll just fire the next two rounds & see where the bullets are going. After shooting five rounds I was pissed, all the money & time put into this gun and only the one round hit the target. I walked out to the target too see if I could figure it out & saw what was happening. I saw one hole about .30 caliber in size with five little arcs around the edges.
I was shooting a 5.56 & all the rounds went through one hole. It was an easy adjustment after that with just a few clicks to the right.
The funny thing is that barrel didn't last long before the accuracy went away but it was fun while it lasted.
