Bore Sighting
Initial bore sighting of the riflescope will save time and money at the
range. Do this by using a mechanical or laser bore sight according to
the manufacturer’s instructions, or by removing the bolt and sighting
through the barrel on some rifles.
Centering of the Reticle
The Razor
®
HD Gen III riflescope is pre-set from the factory with the
reticle in the center of the adjustment ranges. This is the best position to
begin sight-in. If you have changed the settings and wish to reset the
reticle to the center, this can be done easily:
1. Remove the windage and elevation turret caps.
2. Turn the windage and elevation turrets clockwise until stopped.
3. Turn windage and elevation turrets counterclockwise 2.5 rotations to
approximately center the reticle.
To visually bore sight a rifle:
1. Place the rifle solidly on a rest and remove the bolt.
2. Sight through the bore at a target approximately 100 yards away.
3. Move the rifle and rest until the target is visually centered inside
the barrel.
4. With the target centered in the bore, make windage and elevation
adjustments until the reticle crosshair is also centered over the target.

Final Range Sight-In
After the riflescope has been bore sighted, final sight-in should be done
at the range using the exact ammunition expected to be used while
hunting or competitive shooting. Sight in the riflescope at the preferred
distance. 100 yards is the most common zero distance, although a 200
yard zero may be preferred for long range applications.
Be sure the reticle is in focus. (See Ocular Focus—Reticle Focus
Adjustment section on page 5).
1. Before you begin, be sure you are in a safe environment for shooting,
know your target and what is beyond it, and be sure to follow all safe
shooting practices.
2. To start, verify your bore sight by placing a target at 50 yards, and
shoot a three-shot group. If you have a consistent group, continue by
moving your target to your desired zero distance.
3. Take another three-shot group with your target at your desired zero
distance. Next, adjust the reticle to match the approximate center
of the shot group.
NOTE: If the rifle is very solidly mounted and cannot be moved, simply
look through the scope and adjust the reticle until it is centered on
the group.
4. Adjust your point of aim back to the bullseye, and carefully fire
another three-shot group. See if the bullet group is centered on
the bullseye. This procedure can be repeated as many times as
necessary to achieve a perfect zero.
