Scope recticle focusing

[coast]

How are you guys focusing the recticle on your scopes? Use to, I didn't have a problem as my eye took some time to adjust, but since I had laser eye surgery I noticed that my eye will focus on the recticle within a sec and of course none of my scopes are in focus since the surgery.

Every scope I have owned, you turn the eye piece in or out.

Set your parallax to the distance you are looking at. Take your eye away and then look through the scope. If it's not instantly clear then adjust the focusing ring and repeat until it's clear the instant you come onto the scope.

Same as bigs28, but I would suggest angling the scope at a plain background. I usually turn the parallax out to infinity, and point the scope above the horizon, into the sky. I get my cheek weld, and close my eye for a moment, allowing it to relax (this is key). When I open my eye, the reticle should be in sharp focus. If not, adjust the focusing ring and repeat. The reason I allow my eye to relax is so that if I end up glassing an area through my scope, it will not be a strain to keep the image in focus for any amount of time.
