So, I whipped out one of my scope manuals to review how to make an adjustment.

After 2 pages of sales pitch on how great my scope was, I finally found the info I was after. Umm? I already bought the scope? I know how awesome it is. Grrr. They made the sale. Sealed the deal. Really? [emoji21]

So, next I go look for my Bino manual. Same thing. Pages of self promotional fluff assuring me I have purchased the most advanced, highest quality binoculars ever to spy on the Lord's creation. [emoji20]

Better check the reloading press; yep, I have purchased the most durable and consistent machine ever to seat a bullet...Grrr lol

Let's not let the chronograph be left out! [emoji23]

Well the last manual I read, was on a card reader for trail cameras. It said for instructions on how to set up the card reader, go to this web site. The thing was about 4 pages. I just shook my head.

I remember manuals always telling you how to do the easiest of things that anyone could figure out without needing any info, but things that weren't clear etc... were never in the manual...

like does UP mean the bullet goes up or the crosshair?

Isn't the manual the first thing that you throw out and then have to search on the internet to find another one when you can't figure something out?
