I own Benelli H2O shotgun. I recently bought a Trijicon RM05G green dot sight (this one: https://www.trijicon.com/products/details/rm05g) to mount on the shotgun via a Scalarworks Sync Plate (this one: https://scalarworks.com/shop/integral-mounts/sync-01/). I am attempting to laser boresight the green dot sight. I have a computer ballistics program that assists me with creating laser boresight targets and distances based on several variables, one of which is Height Above Bore (measurement from center of bore to center of sight reticle). I want my calculation to be as precise as possible to reduce initial sight in error prior to live fire sighting. I am curious to know if anyone on these boards has a precise value in inches for any or all of the following:
1. Height from Center of Bore of a Benelli M4 barrel to top of Scalarworks Sync Plate plate where the RMG05G would rest?
2. Height from bottom of Trijicon RMR RM05G sight to center of reticle?
3. Assuming you own a Benelli M4 w/ Scalarworks Sync Plate and Trijicon RMR RM05G and have a Height Above Bore value from your previous calculations, what is the Height Above Bore value you found (in inches)?
4. Assuming you calculated height above bore for the rear iron sight on the Benelli M4, what is that value? As my Benelli M4 w/ Scalarworks Sync Plate and Trijicon RMR RM05G would be co-witness, the value for question 4 would be close, if not the same, for what I need here.
Note: I sent an email to both Benelli and Trijicon customer service to obtain the answers for questions 1 and 2. After a few days, I have not heard back. If I do, I will share there responses here. In the mean time, I am hoping the forum can help me out.
Thanks!
