Ags 3-9 scope calibration mag

[Craig Fosse 286]

Hi there guys looking to start range finding with this scope but not sure what it's calibrated at, I brought it second hand, is there anywhere which tells you on the scope or does anyone have an idea?. Cheers in advance

Zoom it to highest magnification. Look at somethinng that will provide the required resolution differential )looking along a brick wall for instance, one set of bricks will be sharp with others closer fuzzy and others further away not quite so fuzzy....measure how far away the sharp bricks are - someone to mark them in some way (drop a hat there) might help or if there is a drainpipe or something? You just need to be able to recognise which bit was in focus so you can measure the distance.

 

Job done.

 

The distance they tell you is only a factory setting. It isn't gospel, it will be roughly there, but 35 yards might be 30 or it might be 40 in reality....another of the same model might be 38, another might be 42....you have to do YOUR scope and if you want a job done right, do it yourself.
