Hey guys for the longest I've been zeroing my scope at the lowest power. My new friend told me x reason (accuracy) that I need to zero at max, my scope is a 4-12, so zeroing at 12. Problem perfect eye relief at 4, but i tunnel at 12. My question, do i need to move my scope to have perfect eye relief at 4x and 12x.

Make that first shot count on the mammal...after that...panic sets in....post him when you kill him!!!
With SFP scopes, zero at highest magnification, in your case 12. Then At setting lower than 12, the spacing for hold over changes. Most scopes sold today are SFP, unless you specially shop for FFP scopes, which you may want if you are long range hunting or just long range shooting.
You shouldn’t be tunneling like you said at all. Adjust the scope forward or back till that’s not an issue. If your scope rings are not the proper height too low or high that could cause this issue as well. The max magnification will just help you zero in on a specific aim point for scope adjustment and this wouldn’t matter for SFP or FFP zero is zero.
