[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 465439, member: 22335"] Take a look here on how to optically center your scope: [URL="http://hobbiesforum.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=opticstechtopics&action=display&thread=67"]Hobbies Forum - How to optically center a scope[/URL] Note that I usually use the second method described (the mirror method) and if I really, really want to get it exact follow it up with the "v-cut in the box" method. Optical centering aligns the scope's lenses and internals so that they all point in the same direction and at the same spot. Mechanical centering just puts you halfway between the limits of the adjustment, and due to manfacturing variables that may - or may not - be at optical center. [/QUOTE]
