Q1: Will the reticle size change with zoom?
No — because this is an SFP model, the reticle remains the same visual size as you zoom in or out. That means holdovers are always visually consistent, though magnification changes target size, not reticle size.
Q2: Is this suitable for heavy recoil or large‑calibre rifles?
Yes — the robust build, large tube diameter and precise machining make it capable of handling larger calibres. Proper mount, rings and consistent torque are still essential for best results.
Q3: What does the side focus/parallax adjustment do?
It allows you to fine‐tune focus and eliminate parallax error from15 yards upwards. This ensures your target image and reticle stay aligned correctly. be sure to read up on how to set your initial ocular focus and then parallax before using.
Q4: Does the included ring set suit all scopes/rails?
The included rings are Picatinny (20 mm) compatible. If your rifle uses a different rail system (e.g., dovetail), you’ll need compatible mounting rings separately.Note - we may run offers to include extra rints at times. If there is a banner up saying dovetail included then they will be.
