[QUOTE="Full Curl, post: 2758441, member: 47602"] First thing I usually do before mounting new glass is I set the reticle to optical center or at least close to it by using the mirror technique. I do this thinking it'll help get me maximum "adjustment range" for both elevation and windage. I might be overthinking this, but how do I do this on a Nightforce with Zero Stop and no other way to adjust the turrets once the caps are removed? Adjust the elevation and windage dials until the reticle is at optical center and then pull the caps off the dials and reset them both to zero?? Then proceed to actually zero the rifle from there? Is there even any good reason to reset a reticle to optical center before mounting a new or used scope? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
