[QUOTE="bartd, post: 4674176, member: 18991"] Infoman is correct. The parallax numbers should be close to the stated numbers given. I was shooting last weekend and I had a 12 year old scope I put on a .300 BO and I just couldn't get the parallax to line up, it seemed about 25% off, certainly not what I remember so maybe over time it happened. Luckily being a .300 BO I won't be shooting that far and I will be using a drop table for anything over 100 yards. Your new PROSTAFF 5 scope is a very nice scope from Nikon. I use a number of them on hunting rifles and I have never had any issues. The parallax adjustment is quick and easy to adjust and accuracy and repeatability are not an issue. Make sure you dial in your scope using Nikon's Spot On Ballistic Program. It's free and will take the guesswork out of holdovers. You really will be amazed at how accurate Spot On will make your shooting. Drop me a note if you have any questions or problems.
