The parallax adjustment can be located either at the objective end of the scope or on the side of the adjustment turret housing. The adjustment moves a lens within the scope causing the target image and the reticle to fall on the same optical plane. This ensures optimal accuracy at the distance of the target.

To eliminate parallax in adjustable objective and long range (side focus) scopes, follow these steps:

1.The reticle should be clear (focused) before adjusting the parallax. If it is not, follow the instructions under “Focusing the Reticle.” See page 8.

2.With the firearm in a stable position, look through the scope, concentrating on the center aiming point of the reticle.

3.Move your head slightly up and down while turning side parallax or adjustable objective ring until the reticle does not move in relation to the target. Using the numbers on the adjustable objective ring, you can get your parallax adjustments close to the proper setting before assuming a shooting position.

NOTE: Settings may vary slightly per individual preferences, air temperature, and atmospheric conditions.
