My M40a1 is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. So I got the Unertl 10x out of the safe for mounting and started reading the zeroing instructions from Unertl as posted on the Hide a few years ago. They say to calc the amount of adjustment needed, and adjust the large Allen screw in the center of the turret but don't say anything about click values or turn values. They do caution against over adjustments and not needing more than 1 half to 1 full turn. Any idea? I suppose trial and error will eventually get it done but seems like a waste of barrel and ammo.

Pull the bolt and boresight the thing at 25 yards and that will put you on paper at 100 if you're not good enough to just boresight at 100.

Looks like it's gonna be trial and error. I'm familiar with boresighting thanks. It was zeroed once before obviously on its original home...
