A question about Parallax

old Sneaky here:I know something about how Parallax works alogning the crosshairs with a focal plane and that with Objective Adjustable scopes you can "Fine tune" out the Parallax by adjusting the objective lense hen when you move your eye back & forth across the eyepiece your crosshairs don't move and with most other rifle scopes the factory sets the parallax out @ 100yds. Now comes my particular situation--I just mounted a Weaver4X28 Classic Handgun scope on a CMP Scout Mount on my M1 Garand and was informed by Weaver that the parallas is set @ 50 yds. The eye relief is about 12" and I plan to use this set-up for hunting Ferral Hogs in Florida where I expect my average shot will be in the 100>150 yd. range. Now the Question--What is the 50 yd parallax setting going to do to my Point of Aim?? Do I need to be worried about it with he long eye relief?? I'd appreciate any information about thios situation. THANX--SNEAKY
