Zeroing Procedures
Please refer to the Windage and Elevation Adjustment to zero the HWS
The following are some additional reference aids that can be used during the
zeroing process
Bore Sighting
Bore sighting the HWS saves time and ammunition at the range This can be done
using a laser bore sighter per the manufacturer’s instructions or by removing the bolt
on a bolt action rifle and visually sighting through the barrel
To visually bore sight your HWS:
• Verify that the rifle is clear and unloaded, then remove the rifle’s bolt and place
the rifle on a stable platform
• Look through the barrel at a target approximately 100 yards away
• With the target in the center of the barrel, make elevation and windage
adjustments until the dot of the HWS is also centered on the target
• The HWS is now bore-sighted Move on to range sight-in to fine tune your zero
Live Fire Range Sight-In:
• Using the same ammunition that you plan to shoot or hunt with, fire a 3-shot group
at your preferred zero distance
• Keeping the gun barrel steady on your aiming target, adjust your windage and
elevation so that the reticle aligns with the approximate center of the 3-shot group
• Fire another 3-shot group to see if it now groups on the center of the bullseye
• Repeat this process as necessary to achieve an accurate zero
PRO TIP:
When making adjustments on your sight, a coin is a good tool to use because
the soft alloy won’t scratch your windage and elevation adjustments.
