Sorry, but it sounds defective and in need of a warranty replacement. :roll: Hope you have a friend near-by who has a spare you may borrow while waiting for your new one to return... I do have a new spare vari-zone but current Homeland Security rules won't let me send it to you. :roll:

This article gives a very good explanation of how to focus your scope but I believe you are having problems with the far object being out of focus when you turn up the magnification. This would be a defective scope and needs to be replaced in my opinion.
