Centra Spiegel Mirror

Der Mirror soll helfen die Schaftbacke richtig einzustellen, aber ich habe es nun getestet und finde nicht, dass er dazu wirklich richtig hilfreich ist, man erkennt nur gröbere Fehlstellungen- 2-3 Sterne.

Beim Zielen hilft er mir richtig gut. Ich kann die Bewegung des zielenden Auges sehr gut mitverfolgen, ich bemerke Abweichungen sofort, somit für mich ein sehr gutes Trainingsmittel. Schade ist nur, dass ich ihn nicht im Wettkampf verwenden darf, wäre im Wettkampf sehr gutes Kontrollmittel.

The item is a small parabolic mirror that screws on to the rear of a Centra iris. When fitted, shooters sees a reflection of their eye and can move the rear sight until their eyelashes are in focus, a distance of about 50mm. They can then adjust the comb of the butt until the iris aperture is exactly in line with their pupil. This counteracts parallax errors and makes a significant difference in sight alignment and grouping ability, even if the original error was only a few millimetres.

I am using this for 10m rifle. Given the price, I am leaving it attached for the moment as I find it a reassurance in replicating my position for every shot. The effect is, however, slightly weird, rather like lining up a laser on a dark background. Drawing the focus back to ones eyelashes helps concentrate on the foresight rather than the aiming mark.

NB: 1. Having dark brown eyes, my pupil is not easily visible in the mirror; I have to move the aperture below and beside the pupil occasionally to check the correct position but, once there, its comfortable an effective.
NB: 2. Once removed, the rear accessory ring on a Centra sight never really tightens again. Ditto this mirror. If opening the iris, therefore, one needs to hold the iris forward of this accessory ring quite firmly or it will unscrew before the iris moves.
