Rifle Scopes NX8 elevation issues....

[bjtiger75]

I picked up a Nightforce NX8 4-32 a few months back and finally got the rifle setup to shoot yesterday. Upon sighting in I only have 17.5 mils of total elevation up and down. With a 20 moa rail I'm falling just about a mil or so short of what I need to go down. I have adjusted the zero stop as low as it will go and can only get 17.5 mils when I should be getting about 26 mils of total travel. Any ideas on why I am on getting the 17 mils? Windage is correct at 20.5 mils and should be roughly 20 total.

Thank you
Bj

Sorry, not trying to be an ass, but it sounds like you still have a Zero Stop set in it. I would review the manual again and undo all Zero stop. If you still have not gained the missing adjustment, I would suggest a call to nightforce customer service.

You set your zero stop, it lines up perfectly

26/2
+5.8 (your rail)
-1 (100yd zero)
17.8 mils
