Title: Red Dot Scope
Post by: Hootowl on March 20, 2011, 07:15:37 PM
I have a Buddy who bought a TRUGLO Red Dot Sight 30mm Tube 1x 5 MOA Dot, and put on his Shotgun for Turkey Hunting, and he was wanting me to help him sight it in, I have never owned a RedDot scope, Where to start? His Gun is a Mossberg 12 gauge.

Start just like shooting a scope.  Shoot dove loads at like 20-25 yds and line it in.  Move your POA to your POI and then shoot again.  You will be real close.  Then when you are happy move to 40 yds.  Shoot your turkey loads and fine tune it.  Shouldn't take but 2 or 3 turkey loads.

I'll try, but I may not be home.  Wife is working and my nephew has his birthday party on Saturday, so I may go to my mom's Thursday evening.  Sure glad I could help.  It is really easy when your sight works well.
