[QUOTE="Southernfryedyankee, post: 286941, member: 15549"] I messed up when I said clicks I meant full MOA, I am new to MOA and I used the wrong terminology, when you read the post you will understand I just eye bore sighted my rifle at approx 25-30 yds to get the crosshairs to match up with my bore at a specific target. Nikons website states this scope has 40 MOA internal adjustment but after going through all the clicks I had after eye sighting I have an additional 44 clicks up elevation to shoot at further targets and an additional 15 clicks down elevation which brings me closer to 60 MOA elevation. I would imagine that is a good thing right or did I possibly do something wrong. I have not tested the windage adjustment to see if it the same. Have companies been known to make errors like this before. I DID buy my scope from a reputable Nikon dealer. This is from Nikons website. If this is a mistake on their part I am very happy. What kind of range can I get with a 7mm rem mag 140g TSX with 43+- MOA Actual Magnification 4x-16x Effective Objective Diameter 50mm Exit Pupil (mm) 12.5-3.1 Eye Relief (in.) 4.0-3.7 FOV at 100 yds (ft.) 25.2-6.3 Tube Diameter 1 in. (25.4mm) Objective O.D. (mm/in) 57.3/2.26 Eyepiece O.D. (mm/in) 44/1.73 Length (in) 14.7 Weight (oz) 19.4 Adjustment Graduation (1 click) 1/4 MOA [SIZE=5]Max Internal Adjustment [/SIZE][SIZE=5]40 MOA [/SIZE]Parallax setting (yds) 50 - ∞ [/QUOTE]
