Hello,
Is it possible, with a Laser Bore Sighter, to settle a scope by taking into account various weights of pellets?
Thanks for your answers.
Regards,

G'day Tempest and welcome to the forum 
Hows life in 'Froggie' land
I think you were asking if you can 'sight in' your rifle with various weight projectiles...if so...I don't think they are designed for that purpose, the bore sighters will only get you 'near the mark' and on paper...you may get lucky and find it's pretty close though all the same.
I have not used one as I prefer to bore sight then shoot and adjust the scope to zero first at 50 then back to 100 yrds and sighting in for whatever caliber the 'point blank' range may be
Hopefully somebody else will have some experience with them and pass comment. I have used a laser sight and the trouble was the further away the target the bigger the dot got making it hard to aim accurately.

Kenny has fairly much covered it but most of the different types of you bute laser bore sighters i have seen and tried have enough inaccuracy not give consistant results and to top this off the laser follows a straight line out from the bore where as the projectile does not as it is influenced by gravity.
