a mate called today to ask advise on a second user scope he had fit to a .17 rimmie. zeroed at 100 yds bullet on bullet, moved the parallax adjuster to infinity and the bullets go 4 inch high.

had a look through it and when the pa is set on a 100 yards,a 100 yard target is slightly out of focus, put it to infin and 100 yds becomes clear.

i think it has been used on a air rile and been re parrelaxed.

but would this make it behave like it did.

Paralax will change point of impact. What it basically is is movement of the sight picture relativce to the crosshairs i think :stupid: .

 

What you could do i suppose is set the object at 50yards and set the AO to 50 and move the objective lenses till it gives a clear picture.

 

Part of the problem could be focusing of the eyebell. Some scope require it to fix it look through the scope at a blank surface and set the paralax to the correct distance and focus the eyebell until a clear picture is obtained then lock it. I'm not talking about a euro fast focus eyebell im talking about rotating the whole eyebell.

 

What scope is it?
