[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Nightforce Elevation Adjustment

Posted: 6/22/2017 1:26:48 PM EDT

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.

The rest is probably under your zero stop. The zero stop won't be at the complete bottom.

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.
