[QUOTE="MuleHunter, post: 575290, member: 14190"] I had a leupold once that the ocular lock ring came loose on. I noticed when my groups started being random at 500 yds. Once i tightened the lock ring the movement went away and the groups tightened up. To the best of my knowledge you have 1 of 2 possible problems. (1) The [B]ocular housing[/B] (rear eyepiece) lock ring is loose. It is seperate from the knurled power ring (just behind it). If you tighten that up by grabbing the rear eyepiece and tightening the lock ring the problem might go away. (2) The [B]ocular lense [/B](rear lense) is loose. There is a ring that is threaded and holds the glass in place. If this is loose then the lense itself is loose and will move. If thats the case you should send it to Nightforce for repair. If both of these are good there will be no movement of the crosshair when rotating the power adjustment. The whole rear eyepiece should move as one piece. [/QUOTE]
