Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew what happened with the Winchester spotting scopes?  I cannot find ANY troubleshooting/technical information on them what so ever.  The Winchester website says nothing about spotting scopes, or that they ever even made any.  I'm a bit confused. 


I have a Winchester WT-831, 20-60x I recently purchased off craigslist (maybe that's where I went wrong) and at my last range visit I noticed it was not zooming properly.  It works fine for 20-30x, but when you try to go more than 30 you simply cant.  The zoom wont budge.  I took it apart to the best of my knowledge and I couldn't see anything that would be stopping it from zooming past 30x.  Thats when I started researching to see if anyone else had similar issues, or if there was any kind of info on the thing.  But there was nothing but people trying to sell them...

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
