[QUOTE="CWM-RHG, post: 1661230, member: 106896"] This is what I did. This is off of my other post. My eyes are really good and I dont wear glasses. If you look at that other post, there's quite a few with the same issues with NF as myself. See below.... I went out this weekend to use everyone's ideas (greatly appreciated). Here's what I did. I adjusted the eyepiece all the way clockwise until it stopped. Cross hairs were out of focus. I then turned the eyepiece counterclockwise until I the cross hairs were in focus. I then went out and set up the gun looking at a target at 1000 yds. I adjusted the side focus/parallax knob until the parallax was set as good as the scope would allow-still a little movement-could have used a little more turn) This was at infinity (bottomed out-no more adjustment). Target was out of focus. I had to back the the knob up about a 1/4 turn to get in focus, but of course parallax was way out. I then adjusted the knob back to infinity which set the parallax again. I then started turning the eyepiece focus counterclockwise until the cross hairs started getting out of focus. This was about 4 complete turns of the eyepiece. I then turned it back (clockwise) a full turn. I then adjusted the side focus and found that I was way closer to being in focus and parallax set. Focus and parallax were pretty close now. I then focused on a target at 100yds and found the focus and parallax fairly close as well. Parallax set and acceptably in focus. Note though-the parallax at 1000yds was never perfectly achieved in my opinion. Thanks everyone!!!!! [/QUOTE]
