As others have already said, adjust target so that the scope reticle pinpoints the aiming point.

Example: With my eyes the narrow part of the wide duplex in a 6X Leupold subtends very close to 7/8" at 100 yds . Making a cross of dark blue 7/8" masking tape on a white background for an aiming point, it is possible to see an aiming error of 1/8" depending on the ambient light.

A wider tape makes a 1/8" aiming error harder to see.
