This item does not come with a special reflective target that is required for use. Nor have I been able to find one elsewhere. It does not tell you that in the product discription and you only discover it when you open the product to use it and it says in the single instruction sheet that the target is not included.
This would probably be a great product if it came complete. With out the target is is not useable.

I ordered the Bushnell boresighter and returned it the next day. The battery compartment was cheaply constructed and the switch wouldn't work. Even after doing the repair suggested by lots of buyers, it still didn't work.
I bought the SSI boresighter, and am pretty happy with it. The switch and housing are much more solid. The laser is easily visible in daylight from 50ft (I didn't try further, but I'm sure it would be fine at 100ft).
Even though the instructions are only a single page, they are easily understood. They include a simple chart to match O-rings to calibers.
One thing to pay attention to is the need for oiling the o-rings before inserting the boresighter. The o-rings are a tight fit (which is good), so the oil ensures better insertion / removal (giggity).

My two complaints are that the 1.77 (air gun) shaft doesn't quite fit tight, and that the container tube they include doesn't fit all the parts in it.
