I'd start by putting ads on Kijiji, Buy & Sell, etc under "gun parts wanted.
Then I's start visiting local sporting goods stores and gun shops and spread the word, as well as enjoy some great company.
Shotguns don't "sight in" remember. Shotguns don't "aim". They "point". That's where patterning your gun/ammo comes in. Just get a variety of shells from diff manufacturers and start shooting at cardboard targets AT THAT RANGE YOU EXPECT TO SHOOT. If the spread is less than 50% pellets on the expected target at that expected range, go tighter on the choke tube until it is. Be warned....that one perfect brand of shell you find today probably won't be working so well a couple of years from now. Be ready to repattern in the next couple of years. Nice gun, btw! Congrats!
start with a web sight from autozone or o riles or napa if you can't find one on their web sights then start with googleing the question and work your way down
At night. You can sight in the 390 during the day in simi-darkness with a day
light lens cover over the front of the scope. (the snap cover has a small hole
in the center for look see during the day) 50 foot room with a target, bench
rest and a rifle vise. You'll also need laser bore sight Figure you rifle
ammunition ballistic and how many yards before it starts to drop. Set the 390
reticle to the red do on the target one or two inch above. Dead center set up
will give you about two hundred yards on center... approx. Now you know this is
a static test or sight in. During night because of some distortion and noise
from the scope. stewbison
Something is wrong with the mounts, they have to be loose or something. I can hit better than that with iron sights. Unless the internals of the scope are loose. You have it mounted in a sled? Is it bolt action? Take out the bolt, sight down the bore at the target and make it stay there, peek through the scope without moving the gun, The cross hairs should be on the target, if not, you are off to start. Setting up your rifle like this will put you on paper at 100 yards. Check it out.
Lock the slide in a padded vise and drift the sight using brass punches and a brass or plastic mallet. The brass won't mar the finish and this is how I used to adjust sights or remove factory sights and install night sights for customers back in the day.
You can get a base line by bore sighting the scope. Bore sight kits are a bit pricy, might be best to take it to a gun range an start at 15 yards shoot a few move out to 25 the 50 then 100. Yes your scope should be sighted for one gun one round, with a cold barrel. Let it cool between shots.
It will test the condition of the batteries. Turn the sight on to its brightest setting and leave it for 2-3 minutes. Then while looking at the red dot, press the battry icon button and hold it in. If the image does nothing, you are good to go. If it starts flashing, then you have less than 20% left in the batteries.
