I also conducted the 50 yard portion of the parallax test using another 2nd-generation Trijicon MRO with a 2 MOA red-dot. The results were nearly identical to that of the first MRO. The extreme spread of the 8-shot parallax test-group was 7.46”, which at 50 yards is 14.3 MOA. Comparisons The tables and graphs below show the results from both the Aimpoint Comp M5 and the Trijicon MRO, side-by ...
I think the Mk4 HD 2.5-10 is so new, I haven't found any good critical reviews - just a few 'rah-rah!' influencer "reviews". I think Leupold is hurting themselves by not offering the PR2 reticle with either the Mk4 or Mk5. Both scopes intrigue me as well, but for Leupold's price point, we should be able to get the scope configured the way we want with illumination.
25y is ideal. NRL22 likes to throw some pretty tiny targets up at 25 yards, and as Spife said, being able to adjust parallax that low helps a good bit. Depending on what scopes you got, you might be better off keeping them on your centerfire rifles and looking at something else for 22. I've got a 3-18x Bushnell Forge on my CZ for NRL22, and I have been really happy with it.

G'day all, So in the never ending search for scopes for my Vudoo the last stumbling block I come to is the paralax distance. I know ideally, one wants 25yds or less. But in most scopes that Ive found which meet my other criteria (not too busy tree reticle, 28MIL elevation) the cost starts...
Back to rifle scopes, we have parallax adjustment which allows us to focus the scope at different distances; however, as ILya points out the focus doesn't always coincide with the appropriate parallax setting and to get a truly parallax free image the final image through the scope may be slightly out of focus.
Re: Newbie question on fixed parallax vs. adjustable Depth of field=ranges at which things are in focus. A fixed parallax scope will typically have a depth of field that extends out to infinity. The lower you turn the power, the greater the depth of field (closer you can aim and see the target in focus). With a scope that turns down to 3 power or so I would expect to be able to see fine at 50 ...
With many of the new LPVO having an 8x or even 10x max magnification wouldn’t it be beneficial to have a parallax adjustment? 8 or 10x is enough to get you out to 600 yards or more. And with many of the nicer ARs capable of shooting 1 MOA it seems like a lack of parallax adjustment is the weak...
I know many times the distance indicated on the parallax knob doesn't correspond exactly to when the image is parallax free and that "this is no big deal," but I am curious how far off other scopes are and what is actually the cause of this error? Of the three scope I can think of off the top of...
Parallax and focus are different, but related matters. Parallex is the apparent shift relative to target. It hasn’t been a problem for me shooting critters. The vitals on a coon or skink at 15 yards is still pretty large. It might be a problem for target shooters. An adjustable parallax scope is the answer if you’re concerned about it.
