sighting in my scope

Post by robbyc »

hello all,
just wondering how many of you xbow users have the same issues as me.. i have a brand new lumizone on a phoenix.. my first pin is 10 yards, the dead center cross hairs shoot from 20-30 and my third line shoots 40 yards.. any one encounter this as well..from what im told the first pin should shoot 10, the cross hairs should shoot 20, the third line should shoot 30 and the forth line should shoot 40.. am i off, or is this absolutly normal..

Adjust the scope to zero the crosshairs for 20 yards. Only adjust the speed dial to zero in the 30 and 40 yards marks.
I'd rather wear out than rust out.

Zman depending on what scope you have there is a "Speed ring ".
The speed ring is present on the Lumizone and the Varizone . If you have a Axiom scope or one of the older scopes ( dropzone or maxzone ) they do not have a speed ring .
