Laser bore sight on shot gun

[hillsider69]

I have got a 12 bore semi auto that I am setting up just to shoot squirrels that are in my woodland. On top is a Nikon 1.5 scope (the one with the turkey diamond) and I fitted the tightest choke that came with the gun. I am hoping to use it as a "shot rifle" at about 40-50m with 4-5 shot. Last week I got a 12g adapter to fit my 223 laser bore sight in the beast.
 Any ideas of the best way to set it up? Should I just set the scope on the laser dot, what about shot drop??
 I am a rifle man not shot gun so any comment other than go shoot it would be helpful!

  Thanks

that should give you a pretty good sight in. I really would shoot it to check your pattern though and then you can adjust for the density to optimize for your range.

Do you think I should allow for shot drop? Maybe set the red dot at the base of the "turkey ring" in the Nikon scope?

I think the reason no one is replying is because your plan seems, uh, excessive.  Outside of slugs, scopes on shotguns are for people with vision problems and people who spend more time reading magazines than actually hunting. 

I wouldn't mess with laser sights at all.  If you're dead set on some sort of scope set up just put the thing on and sight it in.  You do not need to account for bullet drop in shotgunning, outside of slugs.
