    The reticle has specific measurements relating to the kill size, you can check these back to back with the scope you are comparing against. eg the 4 points on the central cross (+ and - 0.5moa points)touch the edges of a 40mm disc at 40y. When you have got this setting matched on both scopes, you are then comparing like for like size.
    At this point, the target will still look smaller through the connect because you can see MUCH more scenery around the target. This gives the benefit of not having to look away from the scope for a final wind check before going for the shot.
    Think about it logically, If the sizes you are looking at were not right, the physics of the pellet drop would not match where they are supposed to be on the reticle.
    think you will find its MIL not MOA

    Thats what I use on my FAC AirWolf, IMO a very good scope for hunting with an air rifle, with it's wide FOV.

    Bought a MTC Connect yesterday and I gotta say its lovely clear glass.
    Fitted it to my Air Ranger and within a few shots it was spot on at 35 yards.
    If I had one gripe about it the reticle is too thin IMO but overall for around £250 its very good value for money indeed!

    Of course you are right. I tried one today and had my brow glued to the eyecup, there was no parallax error.
    I must have tried to use it in a normal way before lol.

    Love that SCB 2 ret, wow
