Fixed parrilax that for Rim Fire use likely 35 yards. Triplex reticle miens really no hold points but the breaks in wire size as viewed.

Here are the specs on the Tasco, copied from Optics Planet website

Bummer the Midway offering does not have AO :(

you usually can loosen the endcap, adjust the objective lens and re tighten. ive done this on several of my fixed scopes.

I noticed that too.
Optics Planet and a couple of othersites say the TAS TRF2732 is an AO scope; but, Midways ad doesn't confirm that.

When you read the specifications at Optics Planet you see parallax fixed at 50yds; not AO
Could be a typo.
But which one AO or 50yds?

Maybe there's 2 different versions of the scope? The TAR2732 & the TAS TRF2732?
This OP link has the parallax at 100 yards.

Just to add a little further to the confusion
If you go to the Tasco website and look up the AR 2-7x32AO the specifications lists the parallax at 100 yards
http://www.tasco.com/products/index.aspx?ClassID=13&FamilyID=450&ProductID=2515j (http://www.tasco.com/products/index.aspx?ClassID=13&FamilyID=450&ProductID=2515j)
However if you go to the Tasco Resources Page & open the manual for the AR2-7x32AO, it is described & listed as an Adjustable Objective scope
http://www.tasco.com/products/manuals/AirRifleScopes_FullManual_5LIM_web.pdf (http://www.tasco.com/products/manuals/AirRifleScopes_FullManual_5LIM_web.pdf)
Me, I'm very happy with my Hawke 2-7x32AO
For a little more money, it's a very good scope with a much better reticle

The correct PDf for the TRF2732 actually is:
http://www.tasco.com/products/manuals/Tasco_RimfireRiflescopes_FullManual_5LIM_web.pdf (http://www.tasco.com/products/manuals/Tasco_RimfireRiflescopes_FullManual_5LIM_web.pdf)
And, unfortunately ... the TRF2732 is not an AO. The TRF2732 is the one Midway is selling. That was a good idea, looking at the resources for the manuals. I wish I had thought of that.
I cancelled my order w/ Midway. Thanks Ed, you saved me $36 and some change.

Yes, a 50-yard parallax is not the best for an airgun.
Even the 35-yard parallax fixed-power UTG/Leapers 4x32 scope is kind of funky at 25 yards---had one a long time ago.
I have noticed though that LPVO scopes (due to their small objective bell) even with a 100-yard parallax, are very forgiving at less than 10 feet away on 2x - 3x mag.
I shot (.22 caliber) this group at 25 yards (5 shots) using 1-4x20 scope set at 4x:

I was looking around pricing the Tasco TAR2732. It's roughly twice the price at $48.69 at Amazon and a few other retaliers. It's slightly heavier than the TRF 2732 by almost a quarter pound at 14.7 ozs.
I had been using a Daisy/Winchester 2-7x32AO on my .22 Backpacker. Liked it fine. Crosshairs were a tad invisible when shooting in near dark/twilight was its only fault. .Unfortunately, it developed retical shadow of the horizontal reticle and I have been unable to find a fix for it.
This website was somewhat less than helpful.
https://rifleopticsworld.com/optically-center-scope/#:~:text=If%20it%20is%20not%20optically%20centered%20you’ll%20see,the%20shadow%20reticle%20disappears%20into%20the%20actual%20reticle.
Edit: Whoops. I can't believe it. I was fiddling w/ the scope again and I fixed it. Retical shadow is gone. Of course I have no idea where it is going to be shooting now. Wouldn't surprise me by the time I sight it in again, the retical shadow will be back.
