    In the bush we wrap insulation tape around the dials so they can't b---- well move. I agree, the piddly little allenscrews are pathetic on a scope costing over a grand.

    Pretty sure that's how most dialable turrets are attached, piddly little Allen head grub screws. Not sure why it's an issue though. Sight the rifle, set the turret, done.

    Better than having 3x M6x1mm grubscrews being over tightened by hunting idiots.

    The tiny little Allen screws are exasperating. I like to take great care in sighting my rifle in and then leave it alone.
    As stated, I do not typically take shots much past 200 yards. I can readily understand the long range Shooters having a different mentality and method.

    why buy the scope with CDS in the first place if you don't like it ?

    got my MOA dial with zero stop from Asia Trading for no cost, gave them the voucher number and it was in the post the next day.

    I have had mine come loose three times now (AR15) after putting a few rounds through it. I am going to set them up then locktight the barstards in place this time.
