Bushnell 4200 Adjustable Objective and Side Parallax Focus?

rosco.217 · March 3, 2009, 02:24 PM

I am looking at purchasing a Bushnell 4200 6-24x40 for a varmint rig, and was wondering how there was an Adjustable Objective and a Side Parallax Focus. I was under the impression that it was one or the other. How does a scope with an Adjustable Objective and a Side Parallax Focus work?

They make them both in both styles. http://www.swfa.com/showcategory.asp...&so=asc&page=2

Bushnell's website advertises two of their A/O models (42-6242M, 42-6243A) to also have a side parallax focus.

Bushnell has a ton of errors on their website. If they gave out awards for inaccurate information I believe that their site would get one. That's what happens when you let the marketing people run amuk with the web developers and forget to have it fact checked by engineers.

I'll chalk it up to a typo then. Thanks for the help.
