I had one of my made in USA FF2s from 2002 go tits up this week. Was on my .30-06. The reticle was moving 10-20* clockwise/counter clockwise when the magnification eyepiece was turned. It would also move side to side if you wanted to move it.
I sent them a repair request and their response was that was totally normal with this style of eyepiece and that it shouldn’t matter because when you shoot you aren’t touching the eyepiece. WTF?
Sent them a response and we’ll see what they come back with. That doesn’t instill a lot of confidence…
