I will just mount this scope to the rail (with no elevation mount) and just ignore the iron sights if they show up in view. I only need to see the cross hair.

Academy will bore sight it for me. Then I will go to the outdoor range to sight it.

Question:
1. After the Academy bore sight it, should I field sight it for about 150 yards or less? I assume the hogs I will be shooting will be about 50 to 150 yards?
Read the manual with the scope. It will tell you what distance you need to sight it in so that the BDC is usable.
