Found this easy way to zero in a scope. Nothing new just better than trying to explain it.

The link seems to be broken or maybe it's just my connection now. :(

Worked for me. That's a very simple way to sight in a scope, provided you have a sturdy table and gun vise.

... a sturdy table and gun vise.
Definitely need the gun to remain still throughout the adjustment process.

Finally saw it! :lol:
I use the same method as described but without the sturdy rifle rest. All I do is to take 3 shots successively then take the average center of the 3 pellets' P.O.I. and then adjust the turrets as described. If you want to be very accurate then a good rest is a must. I just approximated the adjustment of the turrets and I only consumed about 7 -10 pellets to do the same. :thumb:

Why does he use the eye piece to focus on the target? That's just for the reticle.

It's also rough focus..Fine is the AO.

I tryed this guys method today after I mounted my 3-9x32 cp scope wiyh no ao. I turned the power like he says in the viedo and man you talking about a blurr . If you only have fast eye focus with no ao paralex adj forget it. I finally backed power down to 3 power scope was as clear as they come. Shot 5 to 7 pellets on card-board than moved back to 20 yds finished up sighting in scope. when I got futher back yardage wise sure you can encrease your scope magnification with no issues. Forget it up close with no AO - adj. Still worked out fine and what a shooter. Look out Nutters and small game here I's come.
