I have a new Nightforce NXS 8-32 with zero stop.  The specs list the scope as having an adjustment range of 65 MOA.  I'm only getting 39.  Have I done something wrong when I adjusted the zero stop?

Thank a million for any help.

Also depending on how much windage you needed to zero you can lose elevation by pushing the erector far left or right.

Thanks a million Rob.  I guess I incorrectly assumed the zero stop would reset all of the adjustment range to the up side.

eta... Very little windage adjustment was needed to zero.  Not even a full MOA.

Did you center the erector prior to zeroing your scope?  Curious if you did and didn't use a full MOA that's rare.

I did not and I agree.  I've never had a scope that zeroed so quickly.  I bore sighted at 25 yards with the bolt removed.  Moved out to 100.  Had to bring the impact down about 8 moa and a couple clicks over.
