Guys,
I'm new to the modern inline BP scene and had a question or two to cut down on the initial range time with my new toy.
My wife got me a Winchester Apex 50 cal for christmas and today after putting it together I thought about how to bore sight it before I head out to dial it in. The only thing I could think of was to bench it, pull the breech plug and pick out spot approximately 25 yards away. Once I had that spot centered in the barrel I made a few adjustments to the mounts putting the crosshairs a couple inches lower than the point of reference so that I'm a bit closer to dead on when I actually put hole in the paper next weekend.
Any other suggestions?
Rob
