[QUOTE="hareng, post: 94658, member: 4422"] Sorry to disagree Bart i have seen 10's of different models and also had the misfortune to end up with one some years back. 5 1/2" of movement at 100 yards when in focus dependant upon where head/eye was placed. This has nothing to do with pa/focus adjustment, you still get it when there is a bad one, usually asian build. Never seen a decent Leup standard or modded suffer from this parallax. As long as the ret can be seen, you could move your head around and the zero will not change whether focused or not. If scope is focused at another range it will not be as clear as it should, more than likelt blured and or will not be visible at all. So if pa/focus for clarity at every range ignoring what scope says, it is deemed correct for that distance, hence rangefinding a good bloke will get the range within 3% every time. [/QUOTE]
