First off I have never heard of the stated adjustment range of a scope combining both windage and elevation since they operate 90 degrees from each-other. That just makes absolutely no sense, why would you even want to combine the 2. It has 35MOA in either direction from center but that = 70MOA total in EACH plane. Not ragging on you, I know you are just repeating what you were told but something is missing somewhere.

We measure it with a micrometer, mark it with a crayon, and cut it with a chainsaw.

Ok just for grins I grabbed one of my 3-9X42 SII B/S. I know it's not the same scope but it's the same adjustment system from the same manufacturer and has the same advertised 70 MOA adjustment range as the one you are looking at. Based on just twisting the knobs I had 71MOA Elevation and 72MOA windage.

That"s what I'm wondering. Is he quoting it from center???? My 3-9 zeroed on my rifle I have 32 Down / 39 Up, 33 Left and 39 Right...... Or as stated before just a bit better than the advertised 70MOA of adjustment in each plane. |

It is 70MOA of total elevation adjustment and 70MOA of total windage adjustment.
That statement made by Koshkin is correct and just so there is no confusion I grabbed one off the shelf and confirmed it.

I am now contemplating between the SIII 8-32x 56, and the Minox ZA%/30 6-30x 56mm. Decisions decisions.
