Quick answer Zoom zeroing allows for more precise riflescope adjustments by reducing the click value at higher magnifications. Zoom zeroing enhances the precision of riflescope zeroing by allowing adjustments while the scope is zoomed in. For instance, at 2x magnification , the click value becomes twice as small (e.g., 1.6×2=3.2). Similarly, at 4x magnification , the click value reduces to one-fourth. This allows for finer adjustments to the point of impact, resulting in a more accurately zeroed riflescope . Click values for each scope are detailed in the reticle catalog or user manual .

Is it a defect? No, this is not a defect. The image freezing is part of the calibration process, which ensures optimal image quality. By default, the calibration mode is set to Automatic , meaning the device decides when calibration is necessary. You can switch to Manual mode in the Main Menu > Calibration Mode if you prefer to calibrate the riflescope yourself based on image quality. When using Manual mode, always close the lens cover before calibrating. However, we recommend keeping the calibration mode set to Automatic for convenience and consistent performance.
