Riflescope Adjustments
To set the reticle focus, begin by allowing your eyes to focus on
a distant object for several moments—not looking through the
scope. Then, hold the scope up to the sky and quickly look through
it. Never look directly into the sun! Pay attention to the sharpness
of the reticle, and adjust the eyepiece focus until it is as sharp as
possible. The reticle image should be crisp and sharp immediately
when you look. Since your eyesight may change over time, it’s a
good idea to periodically re-check this adjustment.
Rifl escopes are not intended for looking at the sun or any other intense light
source. Such use could damage the retina and cornea of your eyes—even to the
point of causing blindness.
Caution!
1. Reticle Focusing
Vortex Crossfire riflescopes incorporate fingertip-adjustable
elevation and windage dials with tactile and audible clicks. Each
audible click moves the bullet’s point-of-impact a fraction of
a minute of angle (MOA)—either 1/4 or 1/8 MOA. Refer to
markings on the inner turret knob for click movement.
2. Windage and Elevation Adjustment
• 1/4 MOA* closely corresponds to 1/4 inch at 100 yards, 1/2 inch
at 200 yards, 3/4 inch at 300 yards...taking four (4) clicks to move
the bullet’s point-of-impact one inch at 100 yards.
• 1/8 MOA* closely corresponds to 1/8 inch at 100 yards, 1/4 inch
at 200 yards, 3/8 inch at 300 yards...taking eight clicks to move the
bullet’s point-of-impact one inch at 100 yards.
Begin adjusting the windage and elevation settings by first
removing the outer covers. Folowing the indicator arrows, move
the turret dials in the direction you wish the bullet’s point-of-
impact to change. To make the adjustments, turn the adjustment
dial in the appropriate direction (up/down or left/right) as
indicated by the arrows.
Some Crossfire adjustable objective (AO) models use tall target
turrets for improved adjustability of windage and elevation. These
turrets will also allow you to re-index the zero indicator after
sight-in—without disturbing your settings. This very handy

feature allows you to return quickly to your original zero if
temporary corrections are used in the field.
