Sir you win the prize. I was sure the fat end was the objective lens and pointing out on my 30-30. It looks odd but works now that I turned the scope around.

Man I am a fu**in idiot, almost as bad at the guy looking down the barrel of a loaded rifle and shooting the hat off his head.

OH EPIC



Either you're just ####ing with us for the lols, or this is going to go down in history like the Dishwasher M14 thread, hahahahaha

I have a Tasco 1.75-5x20 scope that I mounted to my 22 rifle. While adjusting the magnification it makes things appear farther instead of closer.
Anyone know what is causing this?
TIA

To many wobbly pops maybe?
