I just set up my NF 4-16 ATACR and had it on the 100 yard range this morning for the first time. I noticed I can dial 2.4 mils below the Zero Stop. Do I need to make the adjustment so it will only go 2 mils below the FS? Is there anything else going on in the turret I need to be concerned about if I leave it at 2.4 below FS?
Aside from that, this scope is MUCH better than the 10x42 Kahles that came on the rifle some 30 years ago. I can now appreciate the difference new scope technology makes. My shooting eye is messed up but now I can see a 30 cal. hole at 100 yards. My groups are significantly tighter if I do my part. I am totally satisfied with this Nightforce optic and given its reputation for reliable operation, I don't expect that to change. That said, I am glad its got a great warranty.
Note I had a smith do the mounting but used a Fat Wrench to tighten everything to NF specs. He left the ring screws and ring cross bolt nuts a little less than spec.
