Rifle scope clarity
« on: August 30, 2012, 03:03:46 PM »
I have a Leupold VX3 4.5x14 40mm.  I have noticed that I dont see the reticle as clearly as I used to.  Not sure if there is a way to focus it other than zooming in and out which doesnt have that great of an effect.  Is there a knob or adjustment I am missing?

It is called an Eye Doctor, and new glasses... 

I am needing bi focals...   :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

the eye piece turns to focus the cross hairs, and if that doesnt help, heed the advice.

 :yeah: Roll the eye piece, not the power, as you look through it...should come into focus.
I worry about belonging to a club that accepts people like me as members.
