point of impact up. E.g. if the round has landed below where aimed, then the point of impact

needs to be raised. This is done by adjusting the elevation turret counter-clockwise in the

ZEROING (AIR RIFLES)

Zeroing can be done either manually or with a bore sighting collimator. If a bore sighting
collimator is not available, it is recommended to zero manually.

1. For air rifles start by taking aim at a nearby target (at approximately 20 yards/meters).
2. On side focus models, the parallax should be set to this distance during the sighting in process.
3. Choose an appropriate magnification power for the target distance.
