the 10-inifnity is a focus for your target if your shooting at 100 yards you place that at 100
the magnification changes how you see it but not where the retical points
there is one more adjustment on the rear eye piece most likely this is the focus for the retical it's self , turn it all the way in close eyes point at clear sky open eyes is it in focus , turn a half turn out , repeat fine where it gets better then worse you are only looking at the retical and you have less than 1 second to decide before your eyes will try and compensate on you so if undecided close your eyes and try again go till it gets worse then go back in 1/4 turns and then fine tune
do you intend to shoot beyond 100 yards ?

if you intend to shoot beyond 100 yards it is a good idea to either sight in a little high at 100 about 2 inches is good
or start figuring out your hold overs and working on range estimation
then you need to see where you hit at 100,150 , 200 , 250 , 300 that all depends on the round , the gun , how high your sight is and a few other things
if you say sight in a 308 rifle to be 2 inches high at 100 yards it will be on to an inch low at 200 approximately much ot that has to do with how high your optic is mounted
now you are on for deer size game basically from 0 to 225 yards you then start needing to aim higher at 250 and beyond how much you need to figure out

If you put the gun on sandbags with the parallax adjustment at 100 and the target at 100 and look through the scope and move your head side to side and up and down the cross hairs will not move on the target. Change the parallax setting to 300 yards and repeat. With the gun stable and motionless the cross hairs will appear to move as you move your head. This is what parallax is all about. If the parallax is not set at the range you are shooting it can introduce error in the point of aim depending on how consistent your cheek weld is.

Thank you, much better explanation than I was stumbling through.

Thanks guys On the 100 yards is on the parallax setting if I have this setting sighted in for 100 yards and then turn it up to the 300 yard setting and still shoot it at the 100 yard target will it still hit the same spot.? Just dont know what this setting does.I do know how much drop there is from 100 to 300 target. Shooting a 223 55gr. to give you an idea of the arch of a 55gr 223 this is from an AR so the scope height is 2.6 inches 0 at 25 yards 6" high at 100 yards 10" hight at 200 yards 6" high at 300 yards 4" low at 400 yards a normal hunting zero would be 225 yards 0 at 50 yards 1" 1/2 high at 100 2" high at 150 1" high at 200 0 at 225
