How do you confirm a scope's return to zero after testing?

After performing aggressive turret adjustments, you confirm the scope's return to zero by dialing both elevation and windage turrets back to their original zero setting. The reticle should then be precisely on the initial zero point of your target.

What is the significance of a scope's return to zero?

A scope's return to zero is critical for accurate shooting. It ensures that after making adjustments for distance or wind, you can reliably return to your original point of aim without any deviation, which is essential for consistent performance.
