On well used scopes, you'll often find the blue work around teh 's from all the fingers over the years pulling the scope back. You just get in the habit of pulling the scope back after every shot.Įven the ones with the return spring working, owneres still got in the habit of tugging on the ocular after the shot to be sure it worked. Used a 30X with no return spring assembly on a 30-06 and a 308 and even with it's 1 3/4 - 1 7/8" eye relief, it never touched me.
If yours has the return spring assembly.and you could order them with or without that.then unlocking the ring that contacts the spring and moving the assembly back.basicdally taking it out of action.might be needed to isnusre you don't get hit by the cope in recoil. The objective lock ring is at the front.in the picture you can see two knurled sections, they are supose to operate independently. Hope this helps a little, enjoy your new scope. Should your scope ever need service, suggest you contact Gil Parsons of Parsons Scope Service who specializes in servicing this scope. Believe these scopes were introduced in the '40's and produced into the '60's. They no longer carry the original printed pamphlets but will make a copy and mail it to you.Ĭannot determine the date of manufacture from the serial number however from the four digits would guess that it is an earlier scope. You can email Lyman and request an instruction pamphlet. Move it in the direction that you want your groups to go. Your scope is externally adjustable for both windage and elevation. The ring with the power stamped on it carries the cross hairs which is normally factory adjusted and left in position. Tighten the lock ring to maintain that focus. Point the scope towards a distant blank wall and rotate the ocular lens housing until the crosshairs are focused to your eyes. It is the ring that butts up against the ocular lens housing, not the ring farther up with the power stamped on it. In order to focus the crosshairs, loosen the ocular lens (the one in the rear) lock ring. First thing to remember is if you are going to make adjustments to the objective lens (the one in front) ALWAYS loosen the lock ring which is located just behind the lens cap. Really like these old scopes and have them mounted on my Winchester 52Ds.
