Ok Thanks 😊 what about 45-70 and 338 win mag?

Bore sighting is useless with a "tool"

If you want to bore sight something you take the bolt OUT of the firearm if it is a bolt action. Then you look through the bore to your target. Then when you got the bore lined up with target you adjust your scope.

Also if you got a lever gun like a 45/70 get this.
