Bore Sighting and RZR Zero Stop Preparation

Initial bore sighting of the riflescope will save time and money
at the range. This can be done by removing the bolt and
sighting through the barrel on a bolt action rifle, or using a
mechanical or laser bore sighter.

1. Begin by turning the elevation knob clockwise until it stops.

2. Loosen, but do not remove, the three elevation turret cap
retaining screws.

3. Lift the elevation turret cap up and off the turret. This will
reveal the scale markings to be used for sight in.

4. Next, loosen, but do not remove, the three elevation zero
stop lock screws.

Preparing the RZR Zero Stop for setting:

Note: No initial adjustments are needed on the windage knob.

Note: You will not feel “clicks” as the
elevation knob is adjusted—this is
normal. The “clicks” will return after
final zero stop is set at the rifle range.
Use the graphic number scale to track
adjustments.

Bore sighting a bolt action rifle without a
mechanical or laser bore sighter:

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 elevation and
windage adjustments until the reticle crosshair is also centered
over the target.

If using a mechanical or laser bore sighter, set up according
to manufacturer instructions. Make windage and elevation
adjustments until the reticle crosshair is aligned with the
adjustment pattern or laser dot.

Do not re-tighten elevation zero stop lock screws or replace the turret
