Zero Stop - What does it all mean?

We've put together a short, easy-to-understand blog entry to leave you with an understanding of what Zero Stop is and what it does.

...

• What Is Zero Stop?

When a shooter Zero's their Rifle Scope at any given distance, the user will reset their turrets so their turret is on 0 clicks at their zeroed distance. Zero Stop is a function on a Rifle Scope turret that allows the user to set a stop at their pre-set zeroed distance to ensure they cannot go below this length. Some Optics do have Zero Stops that allow the turret to go a few clicks under their pre-set zero but in 90% of cases, Zero Stop will stop the turret dead when installed. 

• Benefits of Zero Stop?

One of the most common questions I get asked is; "What would suit me better, the 12mm or the 16mm Pard NV007A?"

So below I have put together a little comparison to help you decide what might be best for your needs.

James - our resident Night Vision and Thermal expert - shares his thoughts between a Dedicated Night Vision unit or the use of an Add-On.

...

Night Vision has become more and more popular over the past 5 years, there is no doubt about that. Not only has it improved in terms of technology but affordability. Gone are the days where everything is now generation graded and tubed. Now is the age of Digital Night Vision!

So, what would be best for you? A dedicated unit or an add-on unit?

Here I’ll have a look at what might suit your needs best…..

John Farbrother - 2018 BFTA & WFTC Springer champion - briefly shares 3 popular Rifle Rests and how they can be used for alternative means.

...

Once again, we are looking at an essential piece of kit; a Rifle Maintenance Rest.

These rests have a multitude of uses and generally offer greater ease of cleaning intricate areas of the Rifle whilst being able to use both hands to do so.

Everyone has their own method of how to Zero their Thermal Weapon Scope because let's face it, it’s not the easiest of tasks.

So, I am going to share a few tried and tested methods that I think works best.

Wow! What we would give to be able to visit the States this year and partake in one of the Vortex Edge Training days.

John Farbrother - 2018 BFTA & WFTC Springer champion - explains the importance of Rifle Fitment and Adjustable Rifle Stocks.

...

Rifle fitment can come in the form of many ways and getting the perfect setup can take years to achieve especially if you are working alone on this.

When you adjust the stock and balance of the rifle with sliding weights this may give you a placebo effect of improvement, however, in reality until you run some tests at the range it may become apparent that the adjustments made have actually had a negative effect on the accuracy.

One way of solving this is to get an experienced Shooter to look at the fit of the Rifle when shouldered. This will enable them to see if there are adjustments that can be made to gain maximum effective contact from the Butt, Cheek, Grip and Forend of the Rifle Stock, as what you feel is right may not necessarily be the case if you are new to this.

Also,

One common problem that your average Shooter often overlooks is fitting the Scope level and correctly.

The Wulf Reticle Leveling System is a must-have piece of kit when mounting your Optics to any Rifle.

A very common question I receive from customers is “Is it better to have a Thermal Spotter and a Thermal Scope OR a Thermal Spotter and a Night Vision Scope?’' 

In order for this to be answered, there are a few questions that I tend to ask the customer back.

A very small but invaluable piece of equipment that is more than often overlooked is the Bubble Level.

It's simple. If you intend on shooting at longer distances with a modern scope, let’s say beyond 400 meters, then yes, you should use a Bubble Level.
