Pump gun one shot sight ins?
« on: May 01, 2010, 05:10:17 AM »
Is there a way to sight in a pump slug gun like a bolt action with one shot?
With the bolt action you shoot a shot, remove the bolt line the bore up with the hole and adjust the scope to get the cross hairs on the hole. Usally real close when done.

Well, I would say that if you know the adjustment increments on your scope it would be little different than sighting in a rifle with a bolt. I have never seen the need to look down the bore of a rifle except to make sure it was clear.
After the first shot, just count the inches and adjust the scope accordingly.

Put the cross hairs back on the original spot when you pulled the trigger and then adjust the scope to the point of impact
