I finally received my scope (after my other order for the EBR-2C was canceled). I went ahead and ordered the MRAD EBR-1 style since there was no backorder. Well I got it today and I mounted it. Very carefully and 25in/lbs as recommended by warne. I leveled it with several different methods and then I went to try and adjust the parallax. Thats when things went eh. I was able to turn the parallax knob part of the way then it was very difficult with a lot of resistance. Then it just clicked a little and turned all the way around. Looks like i'll have to send out a brand new $900 scope which is highly disappointing considering everything I've heard about their PST line. Below is the link to the video I made.

**I actually am thinking of just the RMA "exchange" through Opticsplanet.com where I ordered it from. It looks like they will give you a free return shipping label as well. I really don't want this one refurbed, I would prefer a brand new scope.
