[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1606347, member: 97196"] It is a simple process to check your parallax and different scopes are more sensitive to parallax adjustment. Simply focusing the field of view does not necessarily mean the parralax is in adjustment. With the scope on a steady rest move your eye position from edge to edge of the reticle focus ring without touching the rifle and see if your reticle moves on the target. Some scopes will see significant reticle movement when not adjusted and others will have very little. If you have poor near vision that requires you to adjust out the reticle focus ring to focus the reticle you may find the field of view is slightly out of focus when the parallax is in adjustment. With that said, some scope reticles will move over 1” at 100 yards when not adjusted depending where your eye is aligned with the scope. Sorry for the long explanation but I continue to see shooters coming to me with accuracy problems that have been easily resolved with proper parallax adjustment. [/QUOTE]
