Can i ask how you managed to re parallax it without losing the Nitrogen, Thanks

[Bongonaut 8]

Yes...to answer your question. I didn't. As far as I know this scope isn't nitrogen filled..have researched and I can't find any literature that suggests it is? The scope isn't marked as "nitrogen filled" and the manual has no info saying such.

I've had it over two years and not once has it had a problem with "fogging" possibly due to the multi coated surfaces and design. To re-parallax is a simple case of adjusting the foreword optic a few turns either way. These scopes come parallaxed at 100yds so need adjusting for air rifles etc...

I stand to be proved otherwise.

Are you interested in the scope or was it just a question..?

Lately I've had a few threads "taken off topic" and potential sales gone because doubt has been planted in the minds of potential buyers. Hopefully this answer disperses any doubt as to the quality of this scope. If it indeed "was" nitrogen filled it hasn't effected it in any way by adjusting it.

All the best.

i totally agree bongo i have reparalaxed a few scopes over the years and never had to remove any part that would allow nitrogen to escape an easy job

Ps...although "bilbo" and I have similar user tags..we are not related or are the same person...just to dispel any "conspiracy" theories...we are our own free entities....

Correct. I have re parralaxed my WTC 2.5-10x50. It's a very simple procedure of unscrewing the front ring and turning the front focus.Nothing opens.
