How high should you aim above the sensors I'm a decent shoot but I getting a little worried about shooting up my new investment. Thanks Guys!!!

sorry maybe 6 inches instead of three are start from the top and work down until you get readings

Shoot between the sensors but have the chrono in very close range where there is no chance of shooting it. I shot mine with an arrow but got real lucky. Arrow went all the way through but only suffered cosmetic damage. Functions perfect just ugly.

I think anywhere within the arc of the screens should work. I try to aim for the center to prevent damage to the top, rods, or unit...common sense

just keep it in the middleand not that far away maybe 10 feetif you are really worried you can use a laser bore sighter

Hi, this scope has great resolution and zooming. However, I've not shot at that range and cannot speak to that. The thing I will say is that the optics are great but the tripod might not be robust enough for a steady image at the range. The slightest movement would cause image problems at that far a rand. The Barska manufacturer and website are an excellent resource with great customer service. Hope that helps. I'd like to come shoot with you and maybe we can test it out?!

Should be fine, I shoot mine at about 55-60 and my buddy shot them with his bow around 65 and there were no issues. Been using them over a year.

I have this on my shotgun and I had the same problem. I sighted it out further and just learned where it shot at a closer range. After a few shots I got the feel and could estimate where it would shoot pretty easy.

I use the two orange buttons on top like a gun sight to aim it. its 135 degree FOV so you dont have to supper on target with all the moving around, say a mountain bike or motorcycle will be doing. a few degrees off is fine, no one can tell.

Make Sure Your arrow rest is centered perfectly to the string. Can You see the sight clearly through the peep?? When i Shot low, my anchor point where i put the release on my face was too high thus pushing the arrow down. that could be it. but make sure everything else is also in order.

I read about this complaint in posts prior to me buying this scope. I did not experience this problem. Mine is mounted on a 1" riser to get above the battle sights. I had it bore sighted at my local gun shop and he thought the scope was fine. I zeroed it at 100yds on my AR15. It was shooting 1.5" groups. As Paul replied it will not compare with the more expensive models but it does a decent job for the price. I do have to get out and shoot again as the last time I went it was shooting almost 3 MOA high. There was a 30mph wind blowing so the next time out I will see if it was the wind or the scope not holding zero. I read about this complaint in posts prior to me buying this scope.

The sight is designed to be flipped over to increase range. Remove the site from the mounting bracket, flip it over, and re-mount, now you'll be a high :) Happy shooting.

Aloha John,That I don't know..I do know that this item is only a guide to centering..you'll still have to fine tune your zero by shooting!Sorry..I know that didn't answer your question brah.Al

I don't often shoot more than 100-150yds but this past Sunday I was shooting @ a little over 200yds, my brother and a friend have 3-9x, it sure was nice to push the scope to 18x and clearly see the shots on target, where as the others were haveing trouble

I find mine to be underpowered causing unnecessary distortion in some cases. I suspect the problem is an inadequate power supply. Lots of features and skimping on the basics. I wouldn't mind upgrading if you want to buy mine. It won't quite drive my AR3s and Maggies.

Mine are excellent for the noise, but they are just so bulky. I don't really like the way they fit.. I will get different ones that are not so big , bulky and heavy.. when I shoot at the local indoor range here , they make sweat like crazy.. LOL...

It's poss. mine shoots to the left and down a bit. have Green dot locked in at 300ft group of about 2inch. also would need to turn down feed action to slowfiring rate a bit or just go full auto for fun...lol

Can you shoot to 200 yds now? A dot just helps you focus on a point of aim, not shoot better.

i have shots as clsoe as 3 or 4 feet. The problem is the distant shots. it's difficult to spot and evaluate deer size targets at much past 50 yards.

I used a very short one for shooting. I recommend the Vangard model that is the right height for you.

I found the gun to be very accurate at about 23'. However the fixed sights were terrible. In my case, it caused the gun to shoot >6" low at the 23'.I added a red dot sight, and quarter size groups are now typical through 2 1/2 clips (~40 shots). I am shooting RWS Superdomes (preferred) and RWS Diablo Basic.
