    Just got my new SnB and the rubber magnification ring is slipping off. I figure if I sinch it down with a switch view it might not slip. Any opinions as to which switch view fits the bill on the 5-25 SnB? Anyone else having that issue?

    Thoughts appreciated.

    Is it new or "new to you"? If its a brand new scope, the ring shouldn't be slipping off. Especially given the price points of Schmidt and Benders. I don't know your situation but maybe giving them a call and letting them know the problem may also be an option.

    Brand spanking new. I will call the company I purchased it from, but it sucks waiting for a replacement especially after counting down the days till it arrived.
