Zeroing scope

[lovern98]

Folks,

When zeroing a scope, should it be done with the scope magnification at max or at the magnification you normally shoot at? I understand there are a few different schools of thought on this. I would like to here everyone's thoughts on this..



Thanks,

Eric

If it is a quality scope should not make any difference. It doesnt on my Leupold scopes..

I think on FFP it doesn't matter, on SFP you should zero at maximum magnification and then it will work at all the others. That is my understanding.

Agree, should not make a difference. Once I'm on the paper, I generally use a high power, just because I can be a bit more precise with my adjustments.

Hello it should not make a difference But when mounting the scope, mount it on its highest magnification to ensure proper eye relief. Hope this helps Eric
