Ok, I have been trying to make up my mind on what I want in a scope before I lay down the cash for a good quality piece of glass.
Most of the features I want, I have a pretty solid opinion on, but the whole adjustable parallax thing has me kind fo split.
On the get something with an AO side, I'm still working on my skills, and would likely be spending more time shooting at paper, and having AO would seem to remove one place to add in error and confusion.
On the no AO side, you may not have the time to mess with more controls or accurately range your target if you take it hunting. It's one less thing to break, leak, or have set wrong. Additionally, ditching it seems to result in a cheaper, lighter, more compact scope. Most of my practice/plinking would wind up being at my local range, which is 100 yards, which is the parallax free point on the scopes i am looking at.
That's basically my reasoning so far, if you can't tell, I'm kind of leaning towards ignoring adjustable parallax. Any insight/wisdom/corrections pro or con on the subject?
