Squeaky scope magnification

Was out bench shooting and my nightforce scope is now squeaking slightly when I increase magnification. Happens at around the 6x-7x mark - only when increasing magnification not decreasing.

I am assuming I got some dust in there somewhere. Is this anything to worry about or will it go away on its own?
