    How well do your cheap scopes track?

    I've been mucking around with the 22 a lot lately and been dialing using the Nikko Stirling Panamax 3-9 that came on it.
    I was not expecting it to be amazing/perfect and I know 22lr is not the best for testing this either but I though it would be a good way to spend the arvo.

    Anyway I've been getting some slightly unexpected results when shooting out past 100m so I set up a target with a 29.1mm grid @ 50m and got shooting.

    All shots are aimed @ the centre target taking 1x shot at each target by dialing accordingly. Then repeating until each target has 5x shots.

    I think this shows that the Panamax is quite repeatable but it shows approximately the same MOA error I've been getting while shooting further out. This is a big error % wise given its only @ 6MOA of elevation.

    I guess my question is are there any cheap scopes out there that track 100% on or is this pretty par for the coarse?
