Why would anyone have someone else sight in their rifle? The answer is fairly simple. They doubt their ability to do so properly. In most cases this doubt is never openly stated, but in a few it is. So they let someone who is more skilled get their rifle shooting in the black.
I would have to say that a person who cannot hit a target in a controlled environment, rested, etc, will have much greater difficulty doing so while confronted with unanticipated variables encountered in the field, and as such should be discouraged from walking afield with a firearm. It is a fool's mission for them to believe that any component "of superior quality" will give one any edge without having the basic skills required to actually hold the crosshairs on the black.
