    Freezer is the Mk 4 you've got the "target" version with caps on the windage and elevation dials??
    Yip, scope was from another member on here. I have done a basic customised turret for it following Norways method. checked it at various distances and it works perfectly. The covered dials will work perfectly for hunting. Covered for in the bush and I can't think when your not going to have time at range to remove a cap. but having said that the scopes i have had with exposed turrets have never been bumped around.

    I can't seem to fault mine at all and the 'rainguard' feature is a bonus.

    Nope

    But the 30mm tube with side focus is very nice, has heaps of elevation, well over 100 moa & is only 60 odd grams heavier
