No, it dosent throw the shot off, but at a stronger magnification you will notice your sight picture through the scope will be very touchy...harder to hold the weapon still and get a good shot off. So it would be easier to get a shot off at 6X when compared to 12X

It shouldn't with a sturdy scope, it extremely is why Leupolds value one thousand greenbacks. It has to do with parallax too. What you notice around the pass hairs. That being reported I unquestionably have a Leupold IV all the way down to a 80 dollar center factor and NC star Yeah, they seem and experience distinctive. The stops are extra advantageous w/ the Leupold the MOA transformations are way finer, yet out to 500 yds i discover a 18 inch aim is only as lifeless with the two. A rifle can flow around contained in the inventory between photos it extremely is why we glass them in to make the consistent. guy those are some extremely sturdy solutions surprisingly the warmth mirage.

No it doesn't. The power adjustments simply move a lens forward and/or backwards This makes the target appear to change size. If at the gun range your scope does change point of impact with changing magnification power, then you need to send it back to the manufacturer for repair or replacement.

This was a problem with older scopes, which is why variable-power scopes took a long time to become popular. It shouldn't change with any half-decent scope made in the last quarter century.

Your scope is like a pair of binoculars, it just brings the image of what you are looking at closer or further away.** It will not change the point of impact of what you are aiming at.** The answer is NO it won't change the point of impact up, down, right or left...**

In some low end scopes it might effect parallax. Wiggle your head around see if that changes the aimpoint after you adjust.

What will certainly change with more magnification is the amount of eye relief. Less power=more distance from eyes,More power=less distance to eyes.

no . the magnification only changes the size of the target not the point of impact
