Do any of the scopes offer totally parallax error free viewing like the Aimpoint, ie the dot can be way off the scope tube centre yet it will still hit where the dot is covering?
No, the way scopes are built they cannot offer total parallax correction, Aimpoint do.Do any of the scopes offer totally parallax error free viewing like the Aimpoint, ie the dot can be way off the scope tube centre yet it will still hit where the dot is covering?
Easy to test for yourself, if I set mine at 10metres and deliberately lift my head of the combe, I can miss a a4 sheet at 100mtres.Just how far out does the parallax have to be, to be over 3" out, at say 40m ?
Regardless of sight used, you'd want the reticle to be in the correct position, when the rifle is shouldered.
So the rifle needs to be a good fit, even if that relies on an adjustable cheek riser, something I find invaluable.
It seems by watching video 's of the top Boar shooters they all use Aimpoints.
And why do you need to spend fifteen hundred pound for a top German scope when five hundred will do for the Aimpoint,
And you can still use it for woodland stalking with a two inch dot.

The aimpoint is completely different in that you can look from any edge, so long as the dots on the target, so are you, it totally parallax free.
I have looked through the red dots - Docter, Aimpoint etc - they don't have the nice bright image of a good scope.
Not much difference in size between my scope and the aimpoint, Ill measure later.
