I'm having some issues with a scope on my little plinking .17 hmr where the scope has gotten a little hazy. I'm not quite sure what has caused it or how I could fix it, but I can give photos. Has any other anons had this issue?

Dust has gotten on the inside, happens all the time
Just take a punch and a brass hammer, and punch one of the edges of one of the lenses
You might have to hit it pretty hard to get it to pop loose depending on how new it is but it should come out, then you can get in there and clean it up

Either the argon purging failed or your scope was so shit that it was never argon purged to begin with.

Have you tried decreasing magnification? I also have a BSA Sweet 17. At full magnification with the shade attached everything is grey and hazy. It just lacks the light transmission of a finer scope. Try shooting without the shade attached as well. It really only should be used in the brightest sunlight.

You're talking out your ass
Saying big scifi words to make yourself sound smart and make OP look dumb
OP don't let him get to you. It happens to everyone, just takes a little light cleaning. Also make sure you punch the front lense not the back so you don't have to worry about realigning the crosshairs when you put the lense back on

Cmon now. You can Google this stuff.

You've obviously never had to clean a scope before, you're probably noguns to boot. Quit spreading disinformation

oh wow thats shit. i get better clarity luck with a $50 Simmons scope from Heartland America.
when did this start happening?

If I had to think, this has been around for six months, maybe longer. A lot of what is in there looks fibrous

BSA sweet 17 312x40sp. The camera makes it worse than it really is. I can still easily make out what I'm seeing, it just looks like fogged up goggles a bit
