[QUOTE="NesikaChad, post: 405748, member: 7449"] Wes, "set at 100. . ." Exactly what does that mean? Here's what I'm getting at. My eyes aren't what they once were. Nature is beginning to take its course (sucks!) If I was to sit behind a scope, adjust the parallax by dialing to the distance I am shooting from based on the value noted on the scope, it's very, very likely I will have parallax. I personally cannot depend on the settings. They are a nominal reference at best for me. A better way for me to check is by using that value to get "in the ballpark" and then get on the rifle and sight in on a stationary object. I then slowly move my head in a bobbing fashion while attempting to hold the rifle still and while focusing my attention the reticle. If the reticle moves with the motion of my head then I have parallax. If it is rock solid then I know I have it adjusted properly. Good luck buddy. C [/QUOTE]
