Hard to say about shims without having it in my hand. I bore sight in the shop and then when I get to the range. If the first shot is not on the paper I move the target closer.

After I have the first shot on paper I set the rifle so that it will not move in the front and rear rest with the cross-wire on the bull. Being careful not to move the rifle I look through the scope and move the cross-wire to the bullet hole.

Many times I bump the rifle so I just fire another shot and repeat. With two people doing this it's way easy, the shooter holding the rifle and looking through the scope and the other person adjusting the scope for the shooter.

I believe that you should not pull the scope back into battery but slid your finger along the barrel and push it back. It's not uncommon to see me trying to push a modern scope back after shooting grin.
