Well Tom,
I suppose if there's no way to start at less than six hundred feet, one might prove useful for initial sight in. ( if you're military, my hat is off to you, Sir.)
I have found one thing laser "bore sighters" are good for, though.
For swapping scopes on an already sighted in gun, they're perfect.
Place gun on rest with laser turned on while sighting on something stationary. (I use the flat side of one of my outbuildings at about thirty feet)
Before removing already sighted in "old" scope, I mark on the siding with two dots from a sharpie marker. A dot where the laser points, and a dot where the crosshairs are centered.
After mounting "new" scope, I place laser dot back where it was then dial crosshairs back to where they were.
