How to Use Your MSR Riflescope

Eyepiece Focusing

The eyepiece can be focused so that the reticle appears
sharp and black. Adjusting the focus is quick and easy
to do, just follow this procedure:

1. Point the scope at the sky or a plain wall and take a
quick glance through the scope. If the reticle appears
sharp and black, no further adjustment is necessary.

2. If the reticle does not appear sharp and black, take
quick glances through the scope while rotating the
focus ring until the reticle pattern is sharp and black.

NOTE: Do not look through the eyepiece as you turn
the focus ring. Your eyes will adjust to the out-of-focus
condition.

Windage/Elevation Adjustment

The low profile adjustments knobs feature a finger
adjustment for both windage and elevation. Once you
have successfully zeroed your scope, you can set the
zero on your dials with these simple steps:

1) With turret caps removed, grip scope firmly and hold

knob in place.

2) Put pen or other small

object into the small hole
located on the dial.

3) Keeping firm grip on the

knob, use the pen to turn
the dial back to zero,
lining up the number
zero with the white
indicator dot. Only the
numbered dial should
move – do not allow
the entire knob to move or else you will alter your
windage and elevation zero settings.

NOTE: You do not have to set the zero on your dials for
your scope to function properly. Doing so can give you
peace of mind that your zero is set, plus you can easily
confirm if it has moved at any time, but this step is
optional.
