Thread: Non zero lock turrets can be a bitch.

This is 100% a design flaw by Leupold.

My Schmidt and Bender has never moved a single click yet is easy to dial, so the engineering can be done.

My VX3i often turns by brushing through bushes. Feeling a VX5 HD, it was just the same although it had a zero lock button. Sounds like the VX6 is the same too. Its an error in the design specification. It should require 4x the torque to move past each click and the cap needs to be lower, flat to the scope tube like 10mm at the most.

I put in the ball bearing (thanks NZ Asia) which limits movement in one direction. I hope that it will only move a few clicks each time and if its over say 200m I’ll be dialling and visually fix it anyway and if its less it will only be a few cm out.
