Doesnt live up to its looks - AIM Sports Inc 3-12X32mm 1 in Tube Scout Scope w/AO

I was really hoping to enjoy this scope. I needed a long eye relief option for my M44 Nagant and thought this would fit the bill. It looked sleek and the reticle was perfect for my taste. Unfortunately that’s where the appreciation ended. When I went to bore sight the optic, the turrets would not change the POI. What’s worse is when I went to dial back the magnification, it no longer went down to 3x. I readjusted the turrets and got it down to 3x but then it’s wouldn’t dial up past 9x. I’m returning the item and hope to find something that can actually perform
