Minimum Parallax of Discovery Scope HD 34mm 3-18x50 FFP

 

For the price tag of this scope (between $200 and $300) it has some awesome specs, and gets raving reviews.
But...

You might have been wishing this scope had a minimum parallax of 10 yards, not 15y like the manufacturer’s webpage and every webpage of the sellers is saying.

 

Here’s the good news: The parallax can be adjusted much lower than just 15 yards, most likely 10yards or even less.

How I found out? Watching the video linked below,* at around 7:40min.
The last number printed on the parallax turret is 15y, but the turret turns for another quarter turn before coming to it’s stop. Cf. the pic.
