No I'm well aware of that. Just wondering if anyone knew the process or had them do it. The gun I got has lots of people claiming 1 moa and many times a little better. Just not sure how they transfer the program to dialing in the scope. I'm not going to be able to shoot it to test it before I go out and I just hope they do w quality job with it.

Rest assured, if they do their job, the Savage will do it's job. Just be sure to use the exact same ammo they used.

And a follow-up report after deer season would be nice.:)

I just wouldn't be able to shoot at a deer without first shooting my rifle myself. Hopefully they will do fine but having someone else sight in my rifle is just not for me.

Well I get a bore sighter for about $4o bucks and set it in the vise...pretty dang close
I also use the bore sighter to find the aim on my pistols, but I am not a gunsmith, carry on

What are the most accurate brands? What style do you use, the bullet type?

Do this after dark. Take the bolt out. Rest the scoped rifle so you can sight a street light at 50 or 100 yards...through the bore. Don't move the rifle. Set your cross hairs on the light too. You'll be on paper at 100 yards with either the 50 or 100 yard street light setting.

+1. This method never fails, is cheap, and saves ammo. Forget spending money on lasers and such.

Go to Natchez reloading and by you sa good laser bore sighter for 60.00 and you will have it for life. It takes 30 seconds to site it in... By the way 50.00 to bore site it is WAY TO HIGH!

I use a 150 gr Fusion in my 30 06 Savage. They seem to give me the most consistant accuracy.

The difference between just bore sighting and computer aided sighting is that the computer figures in the bullet drop at specific distances for each brand & weight of bullet. A laser on the other hand is a perfectly straight line out of the barrel out to infinity. What you would save in the cost of a box or 2 of ammo and your time.. $50-60 isn't that bad of a price.. especially if the business guarantees their work.
