harv Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 not sure on this make but usually the front lens can be turned if its threaded inside the objective bell which will change the parallax free distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shinybum Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hi could anyone tell me why my scope is blured after 6x mag , cheers It could be that the paralax is not correct for the distance you are looking at as it gets worse as the magnification is increased, all scopes can be adjusted, some with an external paralax ring, others by removing objective lens ring and adjusting the lens itself and replacing ring.
