Sighting a rifle helps the shooter align the rifle's sights with the target, ensuring accurate aim and improved precision. By adjusting the sights to match the shooter's eye level and the specific distance to the target, the shooter can compensate for factors like bullet drop and windage. This process enhances confidence and consistency, ultimately leading to better shooting performance. Proper sighting is essential for effective marksmanship, whether for hunting, sport shooting, or tactical applications.
