Explanation of Parallax

Parallax describes a situation where the focal plane of the object in the scope is offset from the reticle. If you have parallax, you have an optical illusion that must be corrected. Parallax should not be confused with focus. Parallax compensation changes neither the focus of the reticle nor the focus of the image; it simply moves the planes at which these two objects are in focus so that they share the same plane.

YOUR RITON RIFLESCOPE DOES NOT HAVE A PARALLAX FOCUS
AND IS FACTORY FOCUSED AT A  DISTANCE OF 100 YARDS.

Illumination System

The variable intensity reticle illumination system aids in low light situations.
TO ACTIVATE THE ILLUMINATION:

1. Your Riton PRD come with a picatinny rail mount and when
removed it has a RMR footprint.
2. Picatinny mount may be removed by using the provided allen
wrench to loosen the two screws and pull the mount and optic apart then you can mount the Red Dot to your pistol.
3. Using the provided allen wrench loosen the picatinny base bolt. Then attach the lower base and make sure this is solidly seated in the base groove. To prevent recoil injury, position the Red Dot so that you have at least four inches of eye relief.
4. Be sure the base clamp is hooked around the outside of the rail/base. Press downward and forward toward the muzzle. Then, firmly tighten the base clamp hex nut.
5. Note. the Riton PRD has an unlimited eye relief.

Bore Sighting

Bore sighting is a preliminary procedure to achieve proper
alignment of the scope with the rifle’s bore. Initial bore sighting of the riflescope will decrease the amount of time and ammunition you need to use at the range.
This can be done by using a mechanical or laser bore sighter
according to the manufacturer’s instructions or by removing the
bolt and sighting through the barrel on some rifles.

TO BORE SIGHT YOUR RIFLESCOPE:
1. Place the rifle solidly on a rest and remove the bolt.
2. Sight through the bore at a target approximately 100 yards
away.
3. Move the rifle and the rest until the target is visually centered
inside the barrel.
4. With the target centered in the bore, make windage and
elevation adjustments until the reticle crosshair is also centered over the target.
Note - If a laser bore sighting or any other similar device inside the bore was used, it must be removed before firing. An obstructed bore can cause serious damage to the gun and possible injury to the shooter.

Zeroing the Scope

IMPORTANT SAFETY CHECKS:
• Always check your weapon and surroundings for safety.
• Follow all weapon manufacturer safety guidelines.
• Always shoot from a solid rest using consistent and proper
form.
• Be sure that your target is level to aid in accurate sight-in
process.

TO ZERO THE SCOPE:
1. Start sight-in process from 25 yards, from solid rest fire
3-shot group, ensuring that you fire at same spot each time.
Use grid lines on target to center and level your crosshairs.
2. After the first 3-shot group, make adjustments to bring bullet
impact to center of target you’re shooting at. Repeat this
process at 100 yards and you will have accurate 100 yard
zero.
Note - Scope graduations are 1/4 MOA. Scope turrets are marked with direction of bullet impact change. At 100 yards a 1/4 MOA scope adjustment will move bullet impact 1/4 inch in direction adjusted. At 25 yards that same 1/4 MOA adjustment will be 4 times smaller, so 1/4 MOA adjustment at 25 yards will move bullet impact 1/16 of an inch.

Troubleshooting

Problems thought to be associated with the scope are often actually mount problems. Take time to ensure the mounts are tight to the rifle and that scope is secured and doesn’t twist or move in the rings. Confirm that correct base and rings are being used and in the proper orientation. Be sure to torque rings per manufacturer’s specs.
Keep in mind there are many issues that can cause poor bullet grouping. Always utilize a solid rest and maintain good shooting technique. Have a qualified gunsmith look over your rifle to be sure all things are in working order. See that the action and barrel are properly cleaned. Some rifles and ammunition don’t work well together, try different ammunition and see if accuracy improves.
