Adjusting Steiner 5-25 Military Scope 

Adjusting Steiner 5-25 Military Scope
This is a painful video to make and even more painful article to write. I have to present the issue in two ways: Scope theory & quick-n-dirty how too. Why? In short, the factory instructions for adjusting the Steiner 5-25 Military Scope are incorrect.
Key Points:
Do not remove the elevation turret under any circumstances.
The zero stop is mechanically connected to the elevation turret zero by -2 tenths (-0.2mil).
Scope has 26 MILS of elevation possible.
Factory settings are zero at 0.0 MILS with 26MILS elevation Available. This is ideal for canted base, long range rifles.
People get in trouble with these scopes when switching from a 0 MOA base back to a canted base.
If your scope has significantly less elevation and you can’t zero your rifle, follow these steps:
Figure out how many MILS/MOA you are missing.
Loosen the set screws and slide turret to the corresponding number of missing MILS/MOA. Retighten screws.
Now confirm how many MILS/MOA you have regained.
If satisfied, proceed. If short, adjust again for missing MILS/MOA.
NOW you can shoot your rifle and set YOUR zero.
The zero stop will be -0.2 below YOUR zero automatically. You cannot set the scope zero stop independently.
Sincerely,
Marky
