[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 729289, member: 39764"] Some ar more pronounced than others, I presume it depnds entirely on how far the elvation post is threaded towards the bottom of the adjustment range (and top as well). Just a tad too far allows the sight picture to encompass the tube itself. Been discussed on here before so I know there is a variance between units. With my 4.5x16 PST, I can't see the tube at all but my 6-24 shows the crescent at extreme elevation adjustment. I know it's there and what causes it so it's on 'ignore' with me too. Not owning a Razor, I wonder if QC is tighter and stops are in place to eliminate it? I imagine that the erection mechanics are the same across the entire line. I also suspect that glass quality and focal groups change as the price of admission increases. It's a QC issue that could be resloved by adding a stop washer or shim during manufacture but that entails precise measurement of each and every unit to ascertain exactly where the thread stops in relationship to the base (and the roof) of the erector mechanism. It won't effect the mechanics at all btw. Not something I expect on a scope of this price range actually. The mechanics are pretty straightforward in any scope as far as the erection mechanism is concerned. Just small parts all working in harmony with each other... [/QUOTE]
