Here is what I do....a buddy taught me this.

If you have adjustable scope mounts....1st thing....you must be able to adjust windage on your bases if you are to continue..

Find the "center" of your scope adjustment......so dial it all the way in one direction, "bottomed out"...then count how many clicks to the opposite also "bottomed out".....

Now half the number and move it back to there...this is center adjustment.

Now using the windage adjustment screw on your base and a bore sighter adjust those screws so that your crosshairs are centered....

This method will give you the most adjustment left and right possible....

Then sight in as per normal using a bore sighter or not at whatever distance you prefer....I like 20-25yards to start to make sure I am "on paper" with 1 or 2 shots then I move back to 100....
