Sighting-in a rifle helps the shooter

  1. Determine problems with shooting technique

  2. Increase the rifle's range

  3. Make the rifle lighter

  4. Improve the rifle's color

The correct answer is: Determine problems with shooting technique

Sighting-in a rifle is the process of adjusting the sights of the rifle to line up with the bullet's point of impact at a certain distance. This helps the shooter ensure accuracy when aiming at targets. Option B is incorrect because it refers to the range of the rifle, which is not affected by sighting-in. Option C is incorrect because sighting-in does not change the weight of the rifle. Option D is incorrect because the color of the rifle has no impact on the shooter's ability to aim accurately. Therefore, option A is the correct answer as it directly relates to the purpose of sighting-in a rifle.
