A friend of mine has a variation on the "hold it still" approach. He has a Lead Sled that he clamps his rifle to, fires a shot, ensures that the scope is back on the aim point and then adjusts the scope to the impact point. He let me use it to sight in my Winchester 88 with a Redfield Sco...

if i had a drooping loading lever i might attatch a magnet to it and stick it to the barrel. Mr. J. B. Weld comes to mind. :)

I think I am unlikely to have a problem like that with this bolt gun.

No, all religions are not equal. True. If they were they would have no one to fight with. So each one has to style itself different than the other and proclaim it is THE ONE TRUE religion.
