[QUOTE="Clark, post: 694526, member: 6600"] But Bart, if I adjust that focus just right, and I move my eye around the reticule does not move on the target. But if I focus as some other plane, and I move my eye around, I see the cross hairs move on the target. Like you, I pull my eye back until the image is slightly smaller than the eye piece, and I center the image in the eyepiece. But if a person did not do that, and just looked and shot, the focus could be considered a way of reducing parallax caused inaccuracy. So yes it is focus, but it can have an effect on the effect parallax has on accuracy. Calling the focus "parallax adjustment" is a lot less silly than many common things. [/QUOTE]
