Hi guys.
After recently selling my rimfire, I now have a vertually brand new unused Vortex 3-12x42 HP scope left over. And I'm just checking If you guys think that this scope would be suitable to use on a legal limit air rifle. Due to the fact that the parallax Is set from 30 yards to Infinity.
Opinions please lads :

your scope is not suitable unless you get it re-paralaxed 10yds to infinity is what you require unless using fac and shooting over 30yds

Agreed. The scopes focus is set for what is considered to be an legal limits upper range. Closer shots will be more difficult depending on how blurred the image is.

Thanks for the swift replies lads.
I also heard somewhere that shooting a legal limit air rifle with a scope that's parallaxed from 30 yards to Infinity Is ok so long as the magnification Is turned down. Not sure If that's true though. Hence my enquiry on this topic 🤔
