The process of "sighting in a rifle" means to adjust the rifle's sights so that the bullet fired from the gun goes where the sights are pointing. One would normally mount the gun in a vice, fire a shot at a target set at a fixed distance away and then adjust the settings on the sites so that the cross hairs intersect over the hole made by the bullet.
