How do I Use Redfield Golden 5 Star Scope?

Redfield Golden Five Star scopes are high quality optics produced before Redfield was acquired by Leupold Optics in 2008. Redfield has since replaced the Golden Five Star line with the Legend series of scopes. Even though they are out of production, these scopes are still sought after as reliable scopes. The scopes are completely shockproof, waterproof and feature fully multi-coated lenses.

Instructions

- 1
  Sight in your scope with the reticle adjustment dials located on the top and right side of the scope body. When sighting in your scope, you are aligning the projected point-of-impact with the intersection of the scope reticles. Move the reticles down by turning the top dial clockwise or counter-clockwise for up. To move the reticles right turn the side dial counter-clockwise or clockwise for left.
- 2
  Adjust your scope's magnification by turning the variable power ring -- on the eyepiece -- as desired.
- 3
  Set your scope to compensate for parallax error -- the illusion of target movement often encountered when your target is at a long range and your scope magnification is high -- by setting the objective bell to the targets range. This feature is common among high powered Golden Five Star scopes.
