    Has it always been like that or just started?

    If it's new to you, have you adjusted the focus ring? The correct way to focus your scope is to set it on full magnification and aim at a something black, a white wall from only a few meters away works well. You need to lift up your rifle and look through the scope just for a second, in that initial second the cross hairs should straight away be nice and sharp, if they aren't then adjust the focus ring on the eye piece and try again. Repeat until it's perfect. You can't keep looking through the scope as your eye will adjust to it and make it look good, so you have to look through it for a split second.

    Either bring the rifle up like you are going to make a quick shot, then drop it down again, or look down at the floor (over your shoulder) then snap your head into position.

    If you have already done this and it's ok, then I have no idea lol.
