Waste of Time
Wanted to sight in a new scope, but this unit did not permit it to happen. Followed instructions, but laser would not turn on. I reversed the polarity of the batteries and the laser turned on, but it would not turn off. I was disappointed and returned the unit.

Not sure where to begin with the issues I had with this device. I have always used an cartage type laser for centerfire rifles but needed something different for a 22LR. The arbor is just under .22 and the adaptor for 22 did not have any chance to centering the tool in the bore. 10 feet from a wall the smallest movement of the laser would shift the dot close to a foot. I then wrapped the arbor with 3M blue tape in an attempt to use the laser. It only took one layer to get a tight fit in the bore and then when rotating the tool the dot still shifted a lot on the target. I gave up and just started at 15 yards to get the scope set up at the range. Took a few more shots to get zeroed but shooting is fun anyway. Note if there was a selection of zero stars that is what I would have selected.
