So, on my little 22LR rifle (Walther G22), I have a simple, Walther-branded 3x-9x scope that came with it in a package deal.

My question is as follows... when I zoom in to about 7x, the reticle in its entirety seems almost doubled... is this a result of it being a likely cheap-o scope or is it my eyesight or something I perhaps need to adjust? I don't notice the same when I back it down to 3x. I've been using it mostly at an indoor range, so am not looking too far down range (max 25yds for these tests).
