Well it finally happened. Today I was going over my favorite rifle and my heart sank. Her scope has finally started to die. I bought it as a Weatherby Vanguard package in 30-06 with the Bushnell 3-9x40 Banner series about 6 years ago. I've abused both the rifle and the scope but it's always held true. Today, while looking through the scope, I noticed a little blurring around the edges. Thinking my glasses were smudged I cleaned them up and looked through the scope again. Lo and behold, the blur was still there.

Now my question is, will this blurring in the top left hand corner of the image effect my shooting at all? The crosshairs and center portion of the image is still perfectly clear, but that one corner is blurring. So am I done with shooting through this scope, or can I shoot until it completely goes south?
