I seem to have misplaced my old boresighter kit that I've used for a few decades. Anyone use one of these newfangled laser jobs that looks like a cartridge? Do they work well enough to get me on the paper at 25 yds?

you can't just pull the bolt out and look down the barrel for 25 yards?

Do you have a bench or shooting sled to place your gun on so it won't move?

I have the one from wheeler engineering. It's a magnet that sticks to the end of your barrel, works for all guns. I like it.

I have used the bullet ones, and they always move around inside the closed chamber. The one I use sticks in the end of your barrel and has a checkered pattern thing on it that looks like a scope. You look through your scope into the thing, and it is pretty close to on. I've used it for maybe 5 guns, and it works every time.

Here it is LINK

This is the one I have used for the past 10-12 years. Has always worked well for me.

it will get you on paper

they are also nice for boresighting a red dot scope...adjust the scope dot till it covers the boresighter dot and you are pretty much dead on, at least at 25yds

I have an older basic type laser bore sight. Mine has adaptors that will fit several calibers. It fits into the end of the rifle barrel. I like it primarilly for new scopes or if I tranfer a scope to another rifle. The laser bore sight will get me on the paper and from there I live fire to zero in on the bulls eye.
