Default sighting

Just take them all to the range you belong to and set up a target at 50 yards. Then put the rifle on a steady rest, take out the bolt and look down the barrel. Then with out moving the rifle see where the scopes cross hairs are lined up in relation to what you see looking down the bore. Then make your scope adjustments, take the rifles over to the 100 yard range and shoot them. You might want to be an inch high at 50 yards depending on the caliber,or go out and buy a bore sighter.
