Hello, does this scope un-zero when you change the magnification?

It holds zero after changing magnification perfectly. This scope is top notch.

After about 300 rounds thru my MN, the scope stopped holding zero. It was great before that. Mine at least worked one day then just couldn't hold zero the next. Mount is a brass stacker and it's rock solid. I initially gave the scope good reviews but that was before shooting it a bunch.

I have shot out to 600 yards with my 6.5 x 284 and do not see change in point of impact with magnification change with this scope- downside is, cross hairs too thick. Gary

I have no problems with mine mounted on the rear sight base and it is holding zero.

From the description I believe you have a variable power scope. Mine is a fixed 3x and does not have those markings.

Hey, not sure if it is the same model exactly, but the one I have is NOT adjustable on magnification power. It has zeroing knobs (2), a knob for what I'd call 'size of dot', and a knob for 'brightness of dot'. Hope this helps some, but if I were you I'd assume that I and the factory are technically correct. Better be safe with paying for what you want!

I have posted on this scope before. It is not a reliable scope, at least for me, as I could never get it to ZERO. If you cant get the scope to zero, parallax is irrelevant. Assuming you CAN get this scope to zero at some range, you can use the poor man's parallax determination technique. It is painful, but it may help you find the parallax distance. When parallax is set correctly, you should be able to move your eye VERY SLIGHTLY left to right and up and down. If the TARGET stays in the crosshairs, you have found your parallax distance. If the target dances around the crosshairs, you have NOT found the correct parallax. I would recommend setting up targets every 5 yards from 25 to 100 yards(assuming you are using this as a rifle scope not an air rifle scope). This should help you locate the parallax. Most scopes would be at 100 yards, but I do not know what this scope is set up for. I would recommend this link http://www.pyramydair.com/article/What_does_AO_mean_September_2005/25 for some discussion on Adjustable Objective. The idea is to turn the objective bell while watching your target. When the view becomes clear, the parallax is correct. Also, a number of these AO scopes place DISTANCES on the bell. This can be used for adjusting your scopes to hit higher or lower (for people that have an understanding of scope DOPE). Either way, you should be able to get your parallax under control with the AO adjustments or a fixed adjustment of the AO at a known distance. All of my longer range optics have a separate adjustment knob for parallax excluding the 2.5-10 which has a fixed parallax at 100 yards. My 5.5 -25 and 5-22 and the 4-30 ALL have parallax adjustments on the side of the scope. Hope this helps.

Hi Thomas, This scope does not have that feature. There are some that can do that but cost more. This is an excellent scope the images are sharp, the LED light is very bright and the intensity can be adjusted. The work distance between the bench surface and the Light can be adjusted with the auxiliary lens attachment. The only problem I found is the instruction manual it came with is useless, I had to figure how to assemble it by looking at pictures on the internet. Also the two eye piece lenses do not come with the two set screws to hold them in place. they can fall out and break if turned upside down. Other than that it is a good scope.

reticles calibrate a tad different but will not effect much at 100 yds anyway. I have the 22 on a savage 22 mag and it can calibrate dead on at 100 yds.

It has some range finding reticle, it does light up green and red. I have around 500 rounds through my .300 Win MAG and it still comes back to zero everytime. My scope is clear until right before max zoom.

No it isn't. The scope is still mounted on my .22 LR and keeping zero after 5 years... The mil-dot magnification, according to the manufacturer is 8x but it really turn out to be more like 9.7x, just something to take I to account...

I have been waiting for about a month to get my mount, it hasn't arrived yet so I can't tell you if it will zero.????? Hey Amazon where is my scope and mount?
1582998
Yes, BUT! Make sure during your range time to check and tighten the screws every few rounds or so. On my Mosin the rail would slightly shift forward and after every 20 or so rounds I would need to readjust the mount. Having to readjust will effect the zero slightly, but it's nothing frustrating, in my case anyway.

I put a scope on it, sited in and 30yds dead on, after that not sure.haven't tried yet

Yes. Once you have the rifle zeroed in you can loosen the small screws on the windage and elevation knobs and set the dials to zero.

The scope is variable, as you know but the aiming point (dot within a circle) does not change in size with power change. It is, strictly, not a "reticle"--which connotes a crosshair. I don't know what you mean by a magnified red dot.

As this is only a magnifier, it does not need to be zeroed in the same as the sight. It will magnify everything in front of it, including the sight reticle as well as target.
