Just got my 4-16x50mm leapers scope, a couple questions:
    The scope will not focus on closer items with high zoom...I'm assuming the is normal
    What does the front AO adjustment have to do with the "+-" adjustment @ the eyepiece (not the magnification)? It seems to me that the reticule is only in focus @ the minimum "+-" adjustment, regardless of target distance. This is only with relatively short-distance indoor testing; it was dark so no outdoor testing done.

By short range, how short are you talking? The parallax for that scope has a minium of 10 yards.

Thanks, I got my rifle today, mounted the scope, and now have another issue. I have used up all the elevation adjustment trying to zero the scope...still hitting slightly low. Guess I needed the droop compensating mount after all.
