Laser bore sighters for ML’s anybody.

I’ve been toying around buying one but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. I usually bore sight visually in my shop before rangetime.
Sometimes being at the range I feel it might be handy.
I haven’t read any good reviews about the laser type. Red or green.
Anybody have good results or brand suggestions?

Green is easier to see in the daylight.

I have always used the magnetic boresighter that sticks to the muzzle. https://goo.gl/search/Bushnell+Magnetic+Boresighter,+Multi-Coloured

It works great for me. A gunsmith friend told me about them.

I have 2 laser boresights that I bought to use in my CF rifles. One that is the size of a .308 cartridge and you just chamber it, and then one that slips down the muzzle.

They are both red. In bright sunlight the dot is hard to see with both.

Ultimately, I was unimpressed with both.

They will help you get on paper at 25-50 yards, maybe at 75-100. Both of mine are a few inches off at 25 yards, which is where I start getting on paper.

But boresighting the old fashioned way will also get you on paper at 25 yards.

I think laser bore sights only really... shine... in a rifle or muzzleloader that you can’t expose the breech/bore from the rear (many auto-loaders or lever actions like the BAR, Win Model 88 or 100) due to the design.

Unless that was the case I wouldn’t bother with them and just continue do the visual boresight at 25 yards.

Just my 2 cents.

I use a wheeler green laser. It magnetized and sticks to the muzzle. It's very consistent and has saved me a ton of time sighting in guns. Almost always within 6" of center at 100 yards on first shot and often within 1-2". These are however on crowns and brakes that have been dialed in to less than .0005" runout on range rod to bore. So not sure how well it works on a factory barrel.

For the average guy that hardly ever sights in a new gun, Buster Brown is probably on right track of just sighting down bore. Or just take a shot at 25 yards, and dial to hole. The wheeler is $100, so going to take a lot of sighting in to justify it for average guy. For me, when I usually have 4-8 guns to shoot in a trip, it's a life saver.

I have the in the bore type, I only use them on new or different scope/rifle combos. As far as red or green, the red works fine for me but I just sight down the hallway and put the dot about 2" low. The first shot is usually within 2-3 clicks L/R and maybe 6-7 clicks U/D depending on range, flatness of cartridge, on the first shot at 100 yards, 50yards for .22LR, Slugs, and M/L'rs.

Yes, I stated in the opening post I usually bore sight . I use a plumbed 1” grid with a dot in my shop. Knowing parallax will be an issue at this close range, I move my eye left / right looking at the crosshairs movement on the dot until equal movement.
Been successful for me.
I keep records of crosshair heights / bore centers for elevation adjustment.
I have center fire laser bore sighters NP.

Down at the range I’ll have 4~6 ML’s at a time.
Sounds like the Wheeler is for me. Thanks Luke.

Replies appreciated. Green laser it is. I like time savers. Of which I don’t have a lot of.
