Welcome to the Forum!
I'm assuming you have an aftermarket boresighter to insert in the bbl to set the sights. If so,, then as with ANY boresighting device,, all they do is get you "close" on paper. Due to differences in ammo, how the shooter holds & fires a firearm,, the point of impact most often will be different than where the laser bore sighting light pointed.
The only way to make sure of correct sight alignment is to actually shoot the gun.
This is true for any firearm in any caliber.

Just don't forget to REMOVE the laser FIRST!! :shock:

Saw a beautiful 7mm Mag rifle ruined one week prior to moose season by someone who forgot all about the expensive little "bore obstruction" he'd stuck in the barrel!!! Ouch!!!

But he'll only do that once...
