Comparing 'scopes (also parallax adjustment)

[eddiej35]

Don't just adjust the objective for the sharpest focus and leave it at that; put the scope on a hard surface, look through it at a target 30 yards away and move your head side to side. If the image moves relative to the reticle, that's parallax shift, so refocus the ocular (rear) lens to get the reticle in sharp focus, then refocus the objective, and check again for parallax shift.

Sorry master i should have added the more technical stuff .

Some great responses and advice, many thanks.

Have adjusted the WTC and it is hugely better now. I'm going to try the Bushnell at HFT on Sunday and see how I get on ... have also tuned it a bit but will do some further plinking + setting on the range before I (what I laughingly call) "compete".
