    I have one cost about 30 bucks, may be 'lil more now. It has inserts to fit 22 to 12 Ga. bores. Inserts fit on the laser lite and is inserted in muzzle. aim at wall or similar from 20- 40 ft. and adjust scope to dot. I will be on paper and darn close at 25 yards. Work from there. Its not handy now but can look tomorrow if interested. Many outfits sell them. Many people use them ta long distance but that will not work, bullet drops but laser does not!

        I have an AimShot laser bore sight like this $67 one from Amazon. Mine uses button batteries not the power pack like this one.

            I sometimes use my laser bore sighter for my AR 223. It fits in the chamber and shaped somewhat like a 223 round. Works great. Used it to sight in my red dot sight. Used side of my neighbors house to sight in (about 25 yards).

              Those may be the best kind but if you use for many calibers they can get expensive at 30-60 bucks each!

                Hmmmm, don't think I spent 30-60 bucks for it. Maybe 10.

                  Well I was looking at Brownells, admittedly hi-priced, perhaps? They do not even carry the Bushnell model, but have many of the chamber kind

                    That is the one I use. If used consistantly ( line it up the same way each time ) they can't be beat. When I get a new one ( I have worn out several ) I check it on a rifle that I know is zeroed. After that, I can set a new scope to the same spot and get so close it ain't funny. Many customers claim to not even move their scopes and use them as received.

                    I just wish they were available in green as the red is very hard to see in bright light ( I use it at 38 yards using a brick wall as a grid ) especially if the batteries are low or cold.

                    HTH,

                    P.S.- we sell them in our store for $38.95; just google Bushnell Model # 740100C. I would hazard to guess Midway would be your best bet for mail order price break.

                      I forgot to mention that the inserts have a small screw at the end which will expand or contract the insert to compensate for small variations in bore size, so you get a tight fit.

                          I use a $40 laser boresighter. It comes with all the different caliber screw in heads. You can see the laser out to 200yds in low light conditions, but it comes with a reflective target that you can use in daylight. It's always worked great for me and only been off about 1moa when zeroing at 100yds. It's just easy to use and not expensive. Just my opinion though.
