Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004083765A1] The targeting of hunting or sports weapons, e.g. in the form of rifles provided with particularly optical sights (8) is often tedious. The invention concerns a method for targeting hunting or sports weapons, where a shooting person fires a number of shots. The invention also concerns an auxiliary device for performing the method. There are many error sources such as a non-equidistant click function in the sight adjusting means for the sights in a telescopic sight (8) and lack of shooting skills. These will cause that for targeting a rifle, typically there are used between 10 and 20 shots before the rifle is targeted, if possible at all. There is provided an adjusting bench for use by adjusting sights when targeting rifles, including a support holder in which the rifle (4) is fastened with a support holder of rotary seated mainly about a horizontal and a vertical axis (34, 36) whereby it becomes possible to fix the rifle (4) directed towards the sighting point on a target provided at the distance at which the rifle (4) is targeted. After determining and possibly marking a mean impact point on the target, it will thus be possible, while holding the rifle (4) in the adjusting bench, to perform an accurate adjustment of the sights (8) and simultaneously to follow the movement of the sight while operating the sight adjusting means.
