Once you adjust the diopter to focus the reticle to your eye all parallax calibration is out the window. Generally, the parallax cal. is only good at zero diopter; simple physics common to all scopes.Tom

Once again chiming in that EVRY ao scope I've had comes with the diopter adjustment screwed all the way in.

Many high end scope only have tick marks without numbers.Tom

Wouldn't you be better off using corrective lenses and then having your AO accurate? -Y
