[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1418555, member: 10291"] Sure. This an important aspect and critical to accurate shooting, however initially difficult to master and sustain. Think of the crosshairs and it’s relationship to the target no differently as you would the front sight on a handgun, or open sighted rifle. The eye(s) are focused on the crosshair(front sight) to the point where the target appears to be in the background, out of focus. This does not come naturally when looking at a target through the scope. All will appear on the same plane. With practice and conditioning you can train your eye to see only that crosshair and you can be assured that accuracy will be improved. This principle applies whether shooting at a bullseye, or a game animal at any distance. I hope this helps to explain it. [/QUOTE]
