That's a good idea, though I can't really bring the gun back to the gun shop because I've been hunting with it for a few years. I could still use this approach when I go in to buy a new barrel, I guess, and just tell them that I want to fit the new barrel to the gun and test it with the bore sighter before I'll buy it. It sounds like I'll have to find a shop that carries a decent inventory of Benelli replacement barrels.

I have a Nova with a 28" barrel and recently bought one of those laser boresighters to check the sighting on my guns. I put the boresighter into a Mossberg I own and found it to be spot on when I lined up over the sights. But when I loaded it into the Nova, it appeared that the sighting was off quite a bit - nearly 9 inches (up and to the right) at a distance of no more than 50 yards. Not sure what to do here. Can I radjust the sights? Should I buy one of those after-market replacement front sights and line it up differently than the factory sight? Should I just replace the whole barrel? I'm no gun expert, and any advice would really be appreciated.
