I had one on my Stingray. A decent scope indeed. Didn't like he looks of the bulkier eyepiece though.

you mention update paralex ,i have orderd a bushnel sporsman from our host jsr ,my normal hunying range from static hides is 19 to 25 yards ,if the paralex is set for a diffrent distance can one adjust it manualy ,i usualy do a zero on 9+,and that is just see better where my shots fall,once i have zeroed i turn it down to 7or 8+,as i find i can keep on hold better, if you know how to do this could you let me know,thanks,ken

No you cannot adjust it manually, except for the first time. What you have to do is remove the objective ring at the front and adjust -- once only -- the objective lens by turning it a few times. But once you have turned the lens you should be fine at x9. Another option is to perhaps try the MTC Cobra range which I'm sure are suitable for your ranges parallax-wise.

To be honest, I cannot remember

Just be gentle and do one half turn at a time, being very careful with the lens ... do so at your own risk ... then take a look through. It took me about four complete turns to get it okay for me. Once it is done it is fine.

No, just ensure the screws are finger tight.
