TRADITIONAL BORE-SIGHTING (BOLT ACTIONS)
Preliminary sighting can also be accomplished by bore-sighting
at the firing range using a target from 20 to 50 yards away.
1. Position the firearm on the bench, using sandbags to steady
the firearm.
2. Remove the bolt from the firearm.
3. Looking through the bore itself, move the firearm to center the
bull’s-eye of the target inside the barrel as shown in Figure A.
4. Hold the rifle steady. With the bull’s eye centered when
viewed through the bore, make windage and elevation adjust
ments to the scope until the very center of the reticle is
aligned with the bull’s eye of the target, as shown in Figure B.
1. Turn the focus ring counterclockwise (when viewing through
the eyepiece) until it stops.
2. Turn the focus ring clockwise until the “10m” mark aligns with
the indicator mark on the bell of the scope.
3. From this point, all reading of the focus ring is in numerical
order when the ring is turned clockwise from the shooting
position.
4. Adjust the ring as you would a standard adjustable objective
model.
INSTALLING A LENS ATTACHMENT
Many AIM scopes offer threaded objective and eyepiece rings to
allow for the attachment of lens covers and a variety of acces-
sories. These attachments thread directly into the objective or
eyepiece rings. Turns until finger tight do not over tighten.
