    Default Some Assistance

    Hello group,
    I know this might be a little off the wall but I have a scope that well has I guess died but I am not 100% sure.

    I got a bore sight from Cabelas and to the life of me I can not get it to re sight my scope. Now I know a gun owner having issues HAHAHA

    Well its starting to get me upset and well minus buying a new scope and never knowing I was wondering if there is someone that might be able to take a peak at it and see if its me or really the scope is dead.

    Well any advise or help would be great.

    Thanks Jeremy

    Do you mean scope or something with a targeting dot that has a battery?

    Nope, its not that, I put the cross hairs on dead center of the target , click book and I have a whole 2 feet to the right.

    I went and got a bore sight (Laser) to pop it in the gun and try to sight in the scope (Not using the red/green dot) and I can not even see the laser on the cross hairs

    I had to use mine at dusk to get it set up. The sunlight was too bright to see the laser dot from the bore sight at the distance I was looking. Pick a tree on your property at the distance you want to sight in at, staple a paper plate to it and go from there. Those bore sight batteries don't last very long. That should get you in the ballpark.
