[QUOTE="Guest, post: 26500"] Many scopes do not have accurate markings on their parallax adjustment, so I think Ackley brings a valid point which hints at the same issue for both fixed and variable power scopes. Bullets do have a fast and slow precession that does damp out at different points, but this does not affect accuracy unless the bullet is borderline to unstable (I would contend that borderline is unstable). I have never seen a properly machined and bedded rifle with high quality bullets and a solid scope and mounts shoot worse at closer range, I will be a believer when someone tests this on a rail gun with over 30 groups shot at each range under valid conditions.
