Vortex viper pst gen 2 ffp parallax problems

Anyone else found it difficult to set perfect diopter adjustment and then the side parallax doesn't seem to focus in on anything over 150yards until it's at 250-300 on the parallax turret. Then anything over 250yds is 500-infinity. I know the marks are only a estimation so am I reading too far into this?

I have always found Vortex to be poor with regard to parallax and diopter registration - ie both in-focus images perfectly aligned in the same plane.  I have had three Vortex scopes - otherwise fine.

My S&B PM2 is perfect, the side wheel indications are spot on and registration is perfect.  My Nightforce is almost as good (but not quite).

Ok thanks, I've also got a gen1 sfp which is much better so didnt know if it was just ffp which are a bit more fiddly

My FFP was poor, the SFPs I have are better
