[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1660141, member: 10291"] I have had the same issue with my NF NXS and ATACR’s and even two of my NF Bench-rest 8x32’s with the focus/parallax control at the front/objective end of the scope, very problematic for bench rest work. Having to fiddle with a focus-parallax that is not synchronized is a showstopper for my LRH and PRS scopes where there is little time to do a head-check. It does not seem to be an issue with the new ATACR-F1 scopes which use a “faster ratio” focus adjustment compared to NF’s other models. Just an observation, but it seems that my my “fast ratio” scopes(NF-F1, March, Huskemaw, S&B) are not only synchronized between focus and parallax, but are also well synchronized with the numbered values on the focus knob when adjusted from the extreme home positions. Many consider the fast ratio control too sensitive. IMO, that sensitivity to achieve sharp focus seems to be a design factor that places focus and parallax in synch. Once mastered, it’s a hell of a lot faster then bobbing my head around in the scope to tune parallax with a skittish buck at 600 yards. Next to a scopes tracking accuracy, this aspect runs a close second in criteria for my LRH/PRS scope selection. [/QUOTE]
