    Rifle Scopes Dialing in cold weather

    Whats up with the new sub-forum name?

    I know I do not posses advanced marksmanship skills, so I do not post in that forum. Now the forum I post in, is for dummies? I thought I had more skills than that. My questions still might be stupid but that is how I learn. Just thought it was funny, the renaming.

    I have seen this before with a el cheapo scope. I just got my $900 Vortex scope and you can see the reticle move 2 MOA while lightly pushing up down, right left..... on the eye piece. It does seem to self center back, but really, I do not want 1/4 MoA change in my zero. What are your...
