We recommend the CVLIFE Magnetic Bore Sight for shooters who want to rough in a scope before heading to the range. Price $48.79; $43.91 with code SEBASTIANBASSOL (10% off). Best for hunters and shooters who want a quick, no-adapter way to rough in a scope before the range.
A USB-C rechargeable bore sight that attaches with a magnet.
We recommend the CVLIFE Magnetic Bore Sight for shooters who want to rough in a scope before heading to the range. A strong magnetic base attaches in one step to a flat steel muzzle end, with no arbors or adapters, and concentric circles help you center it. It is USB-C rechargeable in about 1.5 hours, so you never need replacement batteries, and a large button turns the laser on and off. CVLIFE lists a Class IIIa laser under 5 milliwatts in red (650nm) at $48.79 or green (515nm) at $54.39, plus a carrying case. The trade-offs are that it only attaches to flat steel ends, not aluminum, titanium, copper, or coated ends, and that a bore sight gets you on paper but is no replacement for live-fire zeroing.

Who should buy this bore sight?
This bore sight suits hunters who mount a new scope and want to save ammunition at the range. If you prefer an arbor kit for different calibers, see the CVLIFE kits and check the image notes on the product page.
How it works
The magnetic base holds the laser at the muzzle. Switch it on, aim the laser at a target, and adjust the scope so the reticle meets the laser dot at a set distance. Then confirm the zero at the range.
Charging and power
The built-in rechargeable battery takes about 1.5 hours over USB-C. A large button toggles the laser.
Case and build
The aluminum alloy body is light, and a carrying case keeps it protected in a range bag.

Why we like it.
One-step attachment
A strong magnetic base clips to the muzzle end of a flat steel barrel, so there are no arbors or adapters to match to a caliber.
Rechargeable
USB-C charging in about 1.5 hours means no replacement batteries, and the cable is included.
Red or green
The red 650nm version is $48.79, and a green 515nm version is $54.39, which can be easier to see in bright light.
A few things to consider.
Flat steel ends only
CVLIFE notes the sight is not suitable for aluminum, titanium, copper, or coated muzzle ends. Check your muzzle device or barrel end first.
It gets you on paper, not zeroed
A bore sight aligns the scope roughly. Confirm your zero at the range with live fire and follow our guide on sighting in a rifle scope.
Laser safety
Class IIIa lasers can harm eyes. Never point the laser at people, animals, or aircraft, and keep the firearm unloaded and pointed in a safe direction.
