[QUOTE="teesquare, post: 1205378, member: 56740"] Rather than parse semantics - let me say it differently:) : If you zero your SFP scope at 300 yds, such that the crosshair is exactly on the intended target - and the bullet strikes that target AND your scope magnification is at it's minimum or maximum ( - or ANY setting - you pick one...) THEN - while still holding on that same target at the same distance - you change the magnification on your SFP scope - your bullet WILL NOT hit the same place on the target. You will have to compensate for the magnification change on a SFP scope. "other places on the reticle" - as in windage marks can change as well - because you are changing magnification in total..not only elevation. SO, if are of the mark by .25 in. to the right at your initial zero setting on an SFP, and you increase magnification, you should see that change as well....Magnification is magnification. It is not merely vertical. [/QUOTE]
