Vortex Viper PST riflescopes incorporate precision finger adjustable elevation
and windage dials with audible clicks.
Windage and Elevation Adjustments
1. Turn the adjustment knob in the
appropriate direction: Up/Down or
Left/Right as indicated by the arrows.
2. Following the directional arrows,
turn the knobs in the direction you wish
the bullet’s point-of-impact to go to.
To make adjustments:
With each click of the Viper PST moving the point-of-impact .2 mrad
(.72 inches), two clicks will move the bullet’s point-of-impact 1.44 inches
at a 100 yard sight-in distance. At 100 meters, two clicks will move the
point-of-impact four centimeters.
With each click of the Viper PST moving the point-of-impact 1/2 MOA,
it will take two clicks of the knob to move a bullet’s point-of-impact 1.05
inches at a 100 yard sight-in distance.

Vortex Viper PST riflescopes use a fast focus eyepiece designed to quickly
and easily adjust the focus on the riflescope’s reticle.
Reticle Focus
Once this adjustment is complete, it will not be necessary to re-focus
every time you use the riflescope. However, because your eyesight may
change over time, you should re-check this adjustment periodically.
1. Look through the riflescope at a
blank white wall or up at the sky.
2. Turn the eyepiece focus knob in
or out until the reticle image is as
crisp as possible.
Note: Try to make this particular adjustment quickly, as the eye will try to
compensate for an out-of-focus reticle.
To adjust the reticle focus:
Warning
Looking directly at the sun through a riflescope, or any optical instrument,
can cause severe and permanent damage to your eyesight.
Adjust the reticle focus.
This Viper PST 1-4x24 riflescope does not have a parallax focus and is
factory focussed at a distance of 100 yards. Using good consistent shooting
form and cheek weld when shooting at distances other than 100 yards will
minimize most error problems associated with parallax.
