Bore Sighting alone is not sufficient enough to ensure and accurate Zero. You must shoot your
firearm at the range in order to confirm an accurate Zero. Follow these steps to fine tune your scope
adjustments:
1. Secure your firearm using a steady platform such as a bench rest or sand bags.
2. Fire 3-5 carefully aimed shots at a target that is set to your desired Zeroing distance (100
yards is recommended).
3. Observe where the bullets have struck the target and make adjustments to the Elevation and
Windage settings as necessary until your point of aim matches your point of impact.
4. Continue with this process until you have achieved your desired level of accuracy.
5. Your scope is now Zeroed to your firearm at the distance that you have chosen.
It is important to remember that many factors can affect the accuracy of your scopes zero
including ammo make/model, temperature, humidity, elevation, distance, angle, and other
conditions. Changing ammunition brands can affect accuracy as well.
Illuminated Reticle
The SEC430G & SEC3942R are Compact Tactical Scope models that have the Illuminated Reticle
feature. There is a white dot as an Indicator Mark on the top of the turret body.
For these specific models the reticle can be illuminated in Red with
multiple brightness levels. If you look closely at the top of the knob you will
notice a series of numbers. “0” represents the OFF position. If you turn the
knob in either direction the reticle will be illuminate in Red. There is 7
brightness levels, “1” being the dimmest and “7” being the brightest.
Adjust the brightness level as needed in accordance with the
surrounding conditions. The illumination will increase reticle visibility
especially during dusk and dawn. When the illumination is turned OFF the
reticle will appear as the normal Black Reticle. Be sure the Rheostat Knob is
set to the “0” position when not in use to preserve battery life.
