Moving the magnifier will change Point of Impact?
This video investigates whether moving a magnifier on a firearm's optic will alter the Point of Impact (POI). It explains that parallax, the apparent shift in an object's position when viewed from different angles, can affect POI. While red dot sights are often advertised as parallax-free, the video notes they still exhibit some parallax. The experiment concludes that shifting a magnifier does not significantly change the viewing angle through the red dot to cause a noticeable parallax shift, meaning a zeroed rifle's accuracy remains unaffected by magnifier movement. The presenter considers this a positive outcome, confirming that a shifting magnifier will not impact zero.
