[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1554054, member: 64108"] I shoot a VX-6 2-12x42 on my lightweight 6.5x284 and at 600 yards and was getting two distinct groups which I realized was due to no parallax adjustment(fixed at 150 yards on this scope), the amount the crosshairs move around at 600 was a bit of a surprise, making cheek weld/head position critical. Things were in focus but not parallax free. I won't buy another scope without a parallax adjustment as the gun is capable to 1,000 yards but it's a lot more difficult. I have learned to pull my head away from the scope a bit until there is black(tunneling) around the view and center that in the scope sort of like a peep sight. I posted this issue a while back.
