scope
« on: May 03, 2007, 02:36:55 PM »
Hey guys sighting in this scope is driving me nuts. Remember that I am a rookie! When you are tweaking these scopes, do you move in the opposite direction from where you are hitting. In archery, if you are missing right you move the site right etc. I am 2" high and 2" left of of the bullseye. Do I want to move my scope down and right 8 clicks each?

Sorry for such a stupid question!

The turret adjustments should have arrows with U (Up) or L (left) indicating the direction to move to change point of impact.

thanks quick. Now, if 1/4 = inch at 100 yards....is that 16 clicks at 25 yards? If so, that will be darn near all the way around the wheel!

Yes, ¼" clicks  means 4 clicks = 1" movement change at 100yds, 8 clicks = 1" at 50yds, 16 clicks = 1" at 25yds.
