No, but a higher power will let you see the target better.
Sighting a rifle helps the shooter align the rifle's sights with the target, ensuring accurate aim and improved precision. By adjusting the sights to match the shooter's eye level and the specific distance to the target, the shooter can compensate for factors like bullet drop and windage. This process enhances confidence and consistency, ultimately leading to better shooting performance. Proper sighting is essential for effective marksmanship, whether for hunting, sport shooting, or tactical applications.
I found one at a local gunsmith, new, in the box with rings for a 22 cal rifle for $60.00. Did a little research and believe it is actually a better scope than most of the economy 22 scopes in 4X. Included rings and an actual target folded up in the box for sighting in after mounting.

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.

To sight in a rifle without shooting, you can use a bore sighting tool or a laser boresighter. These tools help align the rifle's sights with the barrel, ensuring accuracy when you do eventually shoot.
