Description

Nobody likes wasting a magazine just to get a fresh scope or red dot roughly on target. The Firefield FF39016 solves that. It's a caliber-specific boresight machined from brass that seats directly in the chamber of your .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO rifle, projecting a red laser dot at the theoretical point of impact so you can dial your optic in before ever pulling the trigger. Because it sits in the chamber the same way a live round does, it takes advantage of the rifle's own internal geometry for a consistent, repeatable starting point.

How the FF39016 Boresight Earns Its Spot in the Range Bag

Insert it, close the action, and you'll see a 2-MOA red dot downrange. Set the rifle on a solid rest, hang a target around 25 yards out, and adjust your windage and elevation until the reticle or dot lines up with the laser. That's the whole process. It runs on two AG5 batteries (three AG3 also work) with about an hour of continuous run time, plenty for setting up a rifle or two in a session. There's an on/off cap on the end so you're not draining cells between uses. The brass build holds up to being tossed in a bag and used over and over.

Getting the Most From Your .223/5.56 In-Chamber Boresight

A boresight is step one, not the finish line. It gets you on paper fast and saves ammo, but a laser and a bullet travel on slightly different paths, so live fire is still how you confirm a true zero and account for bullet drop, wind, and how your specific load shoots. Treat 25 yards as your alignment distance, keep the rifle dead steady while you adjust, and you'll walk into your zeroing session already close instead of chasing your first shots all over the paper.

Works for AR-15 builds, bolt guns, and anything else feeding .223 or 5.56. Compact, light, and easy to pack for a trip to the range or out in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I still need to zero with live fire after using the FF39016 boresight?

Yes. The boresight gets your optic aligned with the bore and on paper fast, but the laser and the bullet travel on slightly different paths. You'll still want to fire live rounds to confirm your true zero and fine-tune for bullet drop, wind, and how your specific ammo shoots.

What distance should I set up the Firefield boresight at?

Around 25 yards is the sweet spot for most rifles. It's far enough to show clear alignment but close enough that the red dot stays small and easy to see. Trying to boresight at 100 yards isn't ideal because the laser dot spreads out and gets harder to pinpoint.

Will this boresight work in my AR-15?

It will. The FF39016 is built for .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO, so it fits AR-15s along with bolt guns and anything else chambered in those cartridges. Since it seats in the chamber like a live round, it works on semi-autos where you can't just look down the bore.

How long do the batteries last and can I replace them?

The unit gives you about an hour of continuous run time on two AG5 batteries, which is plenty for setting up a rifle or two. Three AG3 cells also work if that's what you have on hand. The batteries are user-replaceable, and pulling them between uses is a smart habit to keep them fresh.
