time for (3) lever action sight ins-need info
ok as time has allowed i have been building (3) marlin stainless steel lever actions into UBER LEVER ACTIONS. 1894 CS-.357/1894SS-.44mag/1895GS-45/70. name it within reason we have done it. yesterday we took the final step and installed williams dovetail firesights front and rear on (2) of them. this is the game changer here. and could quite possibly get damn spendy, if not done correctly.
and thats what i want: the "correct/fastest/cheapest/most dead nutz" manner to sight these (3) lever actions in.
have already lazer(laser) boresighted them and they seem fairly close.
have brass mallet and punch ready to go for rear dovetail. pray i dont have to dick with front dovetail as they are a damn tight fit.
my questions as these will be zeroed for 100yds. no scopes on them evar.
1) should i start at 25yd line?
2) start at 50yd line?
3) start at 100yd line?
will be using like hornaday ammo for each. leverevolution brand.
should i use the lazer(laser) bore sighter at range? or be happy at 10yds as per boresighters directions?
yes i know to shoot (3) rds and then let barrel cool.
if POI(point of impact) needs to go left do i punch rear sight to the left? and vice a versa to the right? or do i play with front sight first and do the same?
what is the EASIEST method here to do this without blowing my shoulder off with the 45/70 which will be the last sighted,due to its ornery behavior off the bench with full loads.
since i have (3) to do , i need to do this fairly quickly and efficiently as possible and put this project to rest and move on.
your thoughts????
