How To Adjust The Parallax Settings On Your Rifle Scope

!±8± How To Adjust The Parallax Settings On Your Rifle Scope

What the heck is Parallax? I asked the same thing when I first started looking to upgrade from iron sight to a good rifle scope. This guide should give you some insight into getting the best focus out of your Bushnell scope, or any other adjustable parallax scope for that matter.

Have you ever looked through a higher power scope and noticed that if you move your eye off center to the edge of the exit pupil, the reticle seems to move across the target? Well, that shift happens when the parallax setting is not properly adjusted for that distance. Some have mistaken the parallax adjustment as a focus or even a range finder, but it is neither of these. The parallax adjustment, when set properly will insure that the reticle is positioned correctly on the target; as though your crosshairs are a part of the target, unmoving, as if they were painted on, just for you. Of course if your scope is not a "target" or a "varmint hunting" rifle scope, you probably don't need to be concerned with adjusting the parallax setting. In most hunting scopes the parallax is negligible, in fact I have a good friend that hunts regularly and he didn't even know what I was talking about when I asked him. I don't hunt, but I love to spend a Saturday at target practice. So to me, any small increase in accuracy is defiantly welcome.

Most of the higher power scopes, with a power of 12 or more, will have an adjustment ring at the end of the Objective bell (the end closest to the target). Usually the parallax adjustment ring has the suggested settings printed on them, so you can just dial in the range you're shooting from. The problem is these suggested settings are rarely as accurate as they could be. So why should you go through the trouble of getting yours "just right"? Why not just use the suggested setting? Even if you're a great shot, you could easily shrink the size of your groups by as much as 30%, just by taking the time to properly set the parallax adjustment on your scope. Many shooters don't even realize that even with a few adjustments they could greatly affect their shooting performance. Let's face it, the documentation that came with your scope isn't a real blessing when it comes to learning how to use it, they just assume you already know.

Now that you have an understanding of what parallax is, it's time to fine tune your scope for increased accuracy. I'm going to assume you have already zeroed in your scope and that it's properly sighted in. You will need to set up your rifle so it is securely positioned on a bench. A shooting rest with a vise would be best. Dial in the suggested setting on the parallax adjustment ring for the range that you're shooting from. Now, look through the scope and shift your eye back and forth, left and right so you can see if the crosshairs seem like they are moving across the target. Experiment with the adjustment ring until you have eliminated the illusion that your crosshairs are moving. When you think you've got it perfect, take a little white-out liquid paper and make a mark on the parallax adjustment ring so you'll know where to adjust it later. Some people paint their mark or score it into the metal, but to start with I prefer something that's not so permanent until I'm absolutely certain about the position. Next, go ahead and take three to six shots and see how your grouping has improved. Nice, huh! Don't stop there, move your target 50 yards back and repeat the process. You might as well find the perfect settings for all the ranges that you typically shoot from in 50 yard increments.

If you're in the market for an affordable rifle scope that will really go the distance I can recommend two models from the Banner series of the Bushnell Scopes line of rifle scopes. The 1st is Bushnell Scopes Banner 6-18x50. This is a long range target scope that is also great for varmint hunting, and it's parallax focus can be adjusted from 10 meters to infinity. The 2nd is Bushnell Scopes Banner 6-24x40. This long range target and varmint scope features a mil-dot reticle which is my preferred style of crosshair. Both can be purchased for around 0.00, so they won't empty your wallet. To view these and other Banner series Bushnell scopes please visit my Bushnell Scopes page.

Happy Hunting,

Bushnell Elite 4200 Series Scopes Dominate the Mid-Range Market

!±8± Bushnell Elite 4200 Series Scopes Dominate the Mid-Range Market

If you are looking for the very best value in a rifle scope, you will be hard-pressed to find a better choice than the Bushnell Elite 4200 lineup. These scopes are nothing short of amazing, especially when you consider the price at which they can be purchased. They have "VALUE" written all over them.

Some of the features that all shooters will appreciate are the precise and sure windage and elevation adjustment knobs. These are easy to turn and adjust, especially when re-adjusting for longer range shooting. No tools or coins are needed, simply turn the correct knob. Also, there is parallax adjustment from 25 yards to infinity which is very nice if you are shooting at a variety of ranges.

Hunters and tactical shooters will especially appreciate a few of the advanced features these scopes contain.

Bushnell's permanent Rainguard coating is particularly trustworthy, as the permanent, hydrophobic (water-repellent) lens coating prevents fogging by causing condensation from rain, sleet, snow, or even your own breath to bead up into much smaller droplets than on standard coatings. Smaller droplets scatter less light, which results in a clearer, brighter view. Now the hunter won't miss the shot of a lifetime because of rain or accidentally breathing on his eyepiece.

They are made to withstand the recoil of magnum rifles and have been tested with up to 10,000 rounds of.375 H&H Magnum ammunition. This is more punishment than most hunters will put through their rifles in a lifetime of shooting. When this toughness is paired with the factory 1-year no-questions-asked replacement warranty one can easily see the value in this lineup.

The models having a 50mm objective lens are the brightest, clearest scopes you will ever see. If your hunting includes low light conditions, frequent snow or rain, thick cover to wide-open fields or plains it would be hard to find a finer scope than the 2.5-10x50mm model. The illuminated reticle makes you quite lethal in low light situations when the trophy bucks are coming out. In fact, it would be hard to find a more perfect scope to cover almost any hunting situation. This one does it all with ease. This one would even be perfectly at home on a long-range varmint rifle, although the 6-24x40mm or 8-32x40mm would probably fill that role a bit better.

These scopes start at around 0 for the 3-9x40mm models and go up to approximately 0 for the 8032x40mm model. While these are not the cheapest scopes you can see on a rifle, they are quite possibly the very best value for the dollar spent. These scopes represent a lifetime investment in quality optics that will serve the user for many, many years of shooting.
