Has anybody used one of these and how did it work for you? Their are many to chose from, I'd like one that would get me on paper at 50 yards minimum or 100 if possible. I see some of the better units claim 100 yards.

My brother has one that I used when I mounted scope on my son in laws new 6.5 creedmore. After using the bore sight, he went to range. He shot at 50 yards and it was perfect side to side and an inch low. So I guess it works.

It may take a day or 2 before I get answer.

I dont care how accurate you can make a light beam to align with the bore.......normally, the gun WILL NOT shoot to that point.
I usually just set the gun on bags and pull the bolt out. Sight thru the barrel to look at a small spot on a target.......and move the crosshairs to the spot. Check and recheck at 25 yards. Then shoot the gun. Normally, It will not shoot to that spot the same way it won't shoot to a laser beam spot. Barrel whip and harmonic vibes will make it shoot to a somewhat different location. Sometimes you get lucky.....but normally you are an inch or three off. Adjust your sights to be an inch or so high at 25 yards......and shoot at 100 yards.

I just start at a shorter distance and use a big target to get started....
