[QUOTE="WildBillG, post: 1835438, member: 106952"] Bart B you are missing the fact that the parallax dial is also used to focus your scope at a certain distance. If the image you are aiming at is bluury you can not pick an exact aiming point. This to is explained very clearly in this thread. When shooting long range or for a very small group the smallest inconsistency in head placement makes a huge difference at the target. That is why parallax adjustment was created because we can not do some thing exactly the same every time. Bart I am not sure what you have for scopes or if they have parallax adjustment but if you do and have a 25x scope try this. Go out to the range and set your scope on 25x and the parallax at infinity now aim at your target at 100yds. It is my guess you will be lucky to male out the bulls eye or center of the page. Now set your parallax at 100yds and see the difference. After this test let us know if the parallax/focusing dial works. [/QUOTE]
