Okay, I was shooting at my range in a 30 yard small bore, reduced size target compitition. I was using my Tula TOZ 78-01 and a cheapie Bushnell 3-9x40 scope.
And yes, I know using cheap scopes is not always the best plan, but I figured its only a 22, there is not a lot of ways I can really kill it with recoil.
On to the question at hand, I had the scope adjusted to 9x and I was having difficulties focusing on both the scope and the crosshairs at the same time. If my eye focused on one, the other became blurry. But when I adjusted the scope down to 3x or 4x I was able to see both pretty clearly.
Is this because of the cheap scope, is this what is called parralax (Still not really sure what that is) or is this just what to expect?
