(6) Zero setting of grip (except 6.5-20x44 A0) (Fig. 3-14)
After the reticle has been adjusted to the point of impacts, with the grip held
with your fingers to avoid shifting of the aligned grip, turn the grip screw in top
of the grip counterclockwise with coin. Then lift the grip up and align the “
”
with the index mark. It may happen that the “
” could not align with the index
mark exactly because of the coupling pitch of the grip with the shaft. And by
securing the grip with your fingers to avoid shifting of the grip, turn the grip
screw clockwise with the coin until the grip is firmly secured.
