How do I focus the scope reticle to my eye?
The focus adjustment on a scope is much like the adjustment an eye doctor uses when they test your eyes for glasses. Turning the eye piece will strengthen or weaken the “prescription”. Follow the steps below to adjust your scope. • Loosen the eyepiece lock ring (if applicable). • Rotate the eyepiece in the negative direction (check your scopes owners manual, typically counter clockwise). • Look Through the scope toward the sky, or at a white wall about 10 away. Rotate the eyepiece clockwise until the reticle appears sharp and black at a quick glance . Do not look through the scope as you turn the eyepiece, as your eye will adjust to the out-of-focus condition. Glancing through the scope will immediately reveal the reticle as distinctive and black when it is properly focused. • Lock the eyepiece in place by tightening the lock ring.
