(2) Focusing

1 Look through the eyepiece with your eye positioned about 10 cm (4 in) away from the eyepiece to see the BDC reticle (Fig. 3-4),

the Duplex reticle (Fig. 3-5), the Fine Crosshair w/Dot reticle (Fig. 3-6), or the Mildot reticle (MILstandard) (Fig. 3-7). Be sure
your eye is positioned with proper alignment and with proper eye relief, otherwise the view will “black out.”

2 Point the objective end of the scope at the sky (NOT point it at the sun) or at a plain unpatterned wall.

3 Turn the eyepiece adjustment counter-clockwise and then turn it clockwise until the reticle appears sharp.

(3) Magnification

• The PROSTAFF 5 Riflescope has variable magnification. For details, see “2. Specifications”.

To change powers, rotate the power selector ring until the desired magnification appears adjacent to the power index dot.
