Is it true that the reticle on this scope does not stay zeroed if you zoom in on your target?

Couldn't be farther from the truth i'm using it on a 30 06 over a hundred rounds and no problem , before on my AR15 over a thousand rounds with no problem.

... I haven't had any trouble with that.. mine is on a .308 rem 700 sps... she's holding steady...If your looking at the reviews your probably seeing a bad scope that circulated around I had it myself.. it wouldn't zoom in it just got really blurry... DO NOT ORDER THE USED SCOPE that is it...

Yes, zero at top reticle (100yds). The lower reticles are used for 200 yds, then next one down is 300 yds etc...those other reticles are used to aim at farther distances. For example top reticle=100 yds lowest reticle for 600 yds

Not very much. Probably due to the short barrel and the design.I am having an issue with inconsistent zero. (scoped model). Scope and mount are tight.Shots are sometimes on the bullseye, but then are about 2 inches off, bothhorizontally and vertically, then closer, etc. without changing the scope zero. (At about 30 ft.). My other Crosman springer (Phantom 1000) is very consistent.

I have posted on this scope before. It is not a reliable scope, at least for me, as I could never get it to ZERO. If you cant get the scope to zero, parallax is irrelevant. Assuming you CAN get this scope to zero at some range, you can use the poor man's parallax determination technique. It is painful, but it may help you find the parallax distance. When parallax is set correctly, you should be able to move your eye VERY SLIGHTLY left to right and up and down. If the TARGET stays in the crosshairs, you have found your parallax distance. If the target dances around the crosshairs, you have NOT found the correct parallax. I would recommend setting up targets every 5 yards from 25 to 100 yards(assuming you are using this as a rifle scope not an air rifle scope). This should help you locate the parallax. Most scopes would be at 100 yards, but I do not know what this scope is set up for. I would recommend this link http://www.pyramydair.com/article/What_does_AO_mean_September_2005/25 for some discussion on Adjustable Objective. The idea is to turn the objective bell while watching your target. When the view becomes clear, the parallax is correct. Also, a number of these AO scopes place DISTANCES on the bell. This can be used for adjusting your scopes to hit higher or lower (for people that have an understanding of scope DOPE). Either way, you should be able to get your parallax under control with the AO adjustments or a fixed adjustment of the AO at a known distance. All of my longer range optics have a separate adjustment knob for parallax excluding the 2.5-10 which has a fixed parallax at 100 yards. My 5.5 -25 and 5-22 and the 4-30 ALL have parallax adjustments on the side of the scope. Hope this helps.

It doesn't. You have to sight in each individual reticle line. once you sight in at 20 yds the rest is easy.

I don't know the answer to that. But I can tell you I have mine on a Gamo Bull Whisper .177 and it stays right on after being zeroed in.

This is not a 'scope' as it has no targeting apparatus. It is merely a magnification device. As such, there is no way to 'zero' it because there is no need to 'zero' it. If your other optics are zeroed, this device will not effect their zero. So, my answer is, "ZEROED? No." However... You may want to adjust this magnifier's field of vision so that your reflex's sight picture is centered within it... Esthetically more pleasing... But it is not necessary for thid device to function properly.

No it does not. The dot size stays the same no matter the magnification. This is a great scope and would highly recommend it.

I have personally found that the reticle is quite visible in bright sunlight. Except while viewing in the direction of the sun during its decline in the late afternoon/early evening, as is the case with any aiming device. I hope you find this information helpful.

My Sweet 17 does not have a mil-dot reticle. It has the standard cross-hairs that appear thick, then abruptly change to thin in the center. I like it.

No the reticle's size does not change with the zoom. Thus estimating distance with the mildot will change for different magnifications.

Hey Mathew T. The same thing happened to my scope. You get what you pay for I guess... and no u couldn't make a replacement because you wouldn't be able to move the crosshair with the turrets and you would have no way of zeroing the scope

Mine would not zero at all. I would have sent it back but was to lazy. I am retired military and do know how to zero an M16 and it's clones.

If you're are talking about a double projection of the reticle...then yes, slightly. The dot seems to be the clearest and least problematic with this HWS.

Mine has so far. holding zero is also dependent on your scope mount. so buy a good mount like the BRASS STACKER.

I have been very happy with the Centerpoint 2-7X32 Scope it has been rock solid and has stayed zeroed perfectly. I have it mounted in a one-piece mount on my AR-15 that allows it to be removed and reinstalled without requiring any re-zeroing upon reinstallation.

I haven't had that problem but I am not completely happy either with my own issue. The windage knob on the rear sight moves when I change the sight aperture from large to small. This obviously changed my zero. I kept them only because I was looking for a work around and they were relatively inexpensive. They had good reviews but I wouldn't buy again.
