or rests on the magazine follower to allow sighting down the barrel, is necessary
for bore-sighting lever action rifles.

Whichever bore-sighting method you’ve used, the next steps are the same
on the firing range. To ensure reliable results, always fire from a rested position
when performing these steps. (If you are using an adjustable objective or
side focus model scope, perform any correction for parallax before continuing,
as explained in
“
Understanding Parallax.”)
