    Custom turret for Swaro Z5

    Like to give a shout out to Dave Earle from Element Industries who sorted me out with custom 2 layer moa turret for my Z5 3.5-18x44. Takes the old 13.25 zero stop turret and turns into a multi turn set up.
    Only down side is you have to remove the zero stop. But the way I set up the scope with 20 moa base the need for a zero stop is pretty much negated. I get just over 3.5 full rotations up ....so 50moa+ and there’s less than one turn down before you bottom out so really can’t loose track of your zero. If you did get confused, just wind all the way down then come back up to the first zero point. The old 13& a bit moa limit with the standard Swaro BT was always a limiting factor if you want to dial much past 700. This is a neat solution

    Hey there, if you have a drop chart that has been validated with live fire to verify its accurate then turn around time is within a week. I will be burning turrets tomorrow for orders so if you have the correct data and place an order today, yours will be made tomorrow as well.
    Cheers Dave
