    Have used one in the past, don't really rate them to be honest. Might save a few rounds but that's all you'll still have to fine tune it by doing it the old fashioned way

    Agree with all of the above; a boresighter will help with initial setup like getting the reticle correctly aligned and putting the first shots on paper, but final zeroing still has to be done the old fashioned way: shooting groups and adjusting to suit.
