If this is your first time mounting a scope, I 100% suggest this method. Get it withing one inch of your aiming point at 25 yards, then move to 100I was told that when you put a scope on a rifle you should sight in at at 25 yds before goig to 100 yds. Is this true.
This is how I do it at 100 yards, but i have only gotten good at it after alot of experience with standard scope mounting. At 100 yards I can get within about 2-4 inches with this method.I put my rifle in a secure rest, take the bolt out and look through the barrel so it is aimed at the center of the sight in target. Then I crank the scope to that spot as well ( at 50 yards ), then squeeze one off. I have been doing it that way for a while and can usually get within an inch or so. Then it's just a scope adjustment to finish the job.

Grab a box of International Clay birds. Put on bank at 100 and shoot until you break it!I have found by boresighting from my cleaning bench to the wall, about 10ft, so the bore is 2 inches lower that the reticle I am on paper at 100 yds. An easier method if your shooting into a bank or berm is pick out or place a small obvious stone for your first shot. It's doubtful you will miss the whole bank. Adjust from there. A lesson learned from silhouette shooting.
I started using a laser barrel bore sighter.I was told that when you put a scope on a rifle you should sight in at at 25 yds before goig to 100 yds. Is this true.
Stone or leaf fits my budget. 2 shots you should be at least in the 9 ring. I have put the little ones, I think minis, at 1000 to shoot at.Grab a box of International Clay birds. Put on bank at 100 and shoot until you break it!
