    You've just done it too far

    My "gap" was less than a mm. I unscrewed to about 1mm (PX about 20 yards), put in the tight / narrow o-ring, tightened back up to reduce gap down to 0.7mm (estimated), PX ~ 30 yards, job done.

    ...more likely the lens carrier is moving independently of the outer ring...try loosening it, you may be pleasantly surprised... I've done 5 of these with no issue.
