Long distance blurred night vision in the scope

One question I have is, how do you shoot in night vision with scopes of 4x or more?
They all look blurry to me

From the FAQ (https://www.groundbranch.com/about/faq/)

Why is night vision blurry? How am I supposed to aim with NVG on?
Night vision devices, also known as NODs (night observation devices), have fixed focal ranges, meaning they can’t keep all ranges in focus simultaneously. Since maintaining the immediate surroundings in focus would blur out everything beyond a couple meters, operators typically set the focus on their NODs to mid- to distant ranges. This blurs out nearby objects, but allows effectiveness in most common combat ranges. To work around that effect, you should:

Make sure you have an AN/PEQ-15 equipped and use the IR (infrared) laser for aiming. Infrared beams are only visible through NODs.
Use red dot or holographic sights, as they maintain reticle focus even through night vision.
If you need a magnified optic, mount the AN/PVS-22 UNS (Universal Night Sight) directly in front of your desired scope to essentially turn it into a night vision scope.

an/pvs-22 is cool, but unfortunately it is very much WIP atm.

Thanks for answering I will try this night

You can do all that and also just lift up your nods and shoot without them, depending on whether or not you can see your target without them. That doesn’t work if your target is in darkness, obviously.
