[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 900325, member: 7157"] I'm not familiar with the effective range of an air rifle, but I imagine it'd be well under 100 yards? At any rate, many rifle scopes have parallax corrected for 100+ yards, if I'm not mistaken. So you'd have a bit of a parallax effect if you're shooting at 25- or 50-yard targets. Also, if you're using a reticle that's calibrated for a specific caliber, then your shooting might be affected. Just my :twocents: [/QUOTE]
