I get my A22 FV-SR next week, and I will be mounting the scope and sighting it in myself. I saw a video were a guy field stripped an A22. It appears to me from the video that by removing the recoil spring/guide rod assembly, the charging handle, and the bolt you can bore sight the A22 by looking through the barrel like you would with a bolt action rifle. Can anyone verify this for me?

I would also like to know if I need to do anything with the factory mounted pica tinny rail before I mount the scope. This is the first time I've done a scope myself,I bought the Wheeler combo mounting kit, and a CTK P3 rest and vise attachment. Any tips are welcome. Thanks

Just noticed the thread title is wrong, how do you edit it?

Yes, you can pull the bolt to bore-sight the A-Series rifles.

As for the factory rail, just make sure the screws are properly torqued down before mounting the scope.
