    ZERO QUESTION

    Ok, I got my rifle and scope...and they are great!
    Now I need to Zero the scope...

    I read many things about it but, I have still one question:
    After adjusting the scope by ckicking here and there (horizontal and vertical adjustments) I believe that my scope turrets settings will not anymore be on the Zero.
    Of course I would like my rifle to shoot straight , but I would like also the turrets to be pointed on Zero after the adjustments.

    Is it possible? what do you guys do?
    Thanks

    If you look at the turrets, do you see a set screw? If not, does the dial lift up against a spring? If you see a set screw, loosen it barely and move the dial to the 'new' zero after you get it dialed in at 100yds.

    If spring loaded, lift, turn to the 'new' zero.

    I think you have a Mark IV, right? If you do, I know the manual can be a bit overwhelming, but read it several times. Some good info in there on zeroing and windage issues.
