Note - If a laser bore sighting or any other similar device inside the bore
was used, it must be removed before firing. An obstructed bore can cause
serious damage to the gun and possible injury to the shooter.

Note - Scope graduations are 1 MOA. Scope turrets are marked with
direction of bullet impact change. At 100 yards a 1 MOA scope adjustment
will move bullet impact 1 inch in direction adjusted. At 25 yards that same
1 MOA adjustment will be 4 times smaller, so 1 MOA adjustment at 25
yards will move bullet impact 1/4 of an inch.
