I just received a SWFA model SS10X42MQ but found to eliminate the parallax at a target over 1000 meters I have to dial the focus ring to ~175 meters. Why is this? This is the rear focus model and the max distance labels on the focus ring are 500 meters, then infinite. I would have assumed infinite would have been correct. Is there any adjustment to calibrate the focus ring? Is something wrong with the scope? This scope came with no user manual.
