[QUOTE="LPRoad, post: 1123748, member: 92075"] The only precision shooting I have done to date has been with air rifles and .22 rifles. In the air rifle group particularly AO scopes are the norm. I did find however, that by using a tyrolean style stock which pretty much positioned my head exactly each time, I could be competitive with a non AO scope. I will soon be purchasing a 6.5 cal rifle for informal target shooting to 600 yards and hunting. One of the scopes in my price range (a Steiner) does not have parallax adjustment. The Leupold VX-3 scopes I am also looking at come with no parallax adjustment as well as AO and side focus. The non parallax adjustment scopes are cheaper. Should I rule out the non parallax adjusting scopes? Or is the range and type of shooting I am interested in doing such that parallax adjustment would not really be that important. [/QUOTE]
