So took the scope out this eve and played with it. First I moved it back about an inch...no longer climbing the stock. Second, 5x seems to be the sweet spot as far as forgiving eye box. Also in seeing detail at dusk, 5x beat 3x. Third, my focus eyepiece was not quite focused totally right, focusing it made a sharper image. With all that, maybe it was more my fault than the scope!
That's what I said.
