That dude talks so slow, I wish he would pick up the pace a little.

Boiled down:
Rest rifle on sandbags and look down the bore at a big ass piece of cardboard.
Look through the scope and adjust it as necessary.
Look back down the bore to see that it didn't move.
Shoot the rifle and fine tune.

Otherwise known as bore sighting. Rifle 101. Some people think they need fancy lasers for that sorta thing. They are incorrect.

I still am going to use a laser bore sight, before taking a single shot. I find that it saves me money in the long run.

if you have a solid gun vise, you can bore site and then take your first shot. without moving the gun, adjust the crosshairs to line up with the bullet hole. voila, dead on.

Sight vs. site

A site is (1) a place where something is located, or (2) a website.While site has few definitions, sight has many, including (1) the ability to see; (2) one's field of vision; (3) something seen; (4) a place or thing worth seeing; and (5) the part of a firearm used to aim. It appears in the common phrases set one's sights, out of sight, sight unseen, and sight for sore eyes.
