Thread: School me on Leupold CDS turrets

He possibly means inch minutes as opposed to true minutes (1.047"@100yds)

with mine, 4.5-14LR . . i got the CDS dial n 1/4'' clicks with No zero stop

you get a free voucher with some models, VX3 and up

i contacted the NZ agent who sent me a 1/4'' zero stop / one turn dial for No charge . . . turns out the difference is a tiny ball bearing, i asked myself ' wouldnt it have been easier to put the ball bearing in a packet with the original scope ' anyway

good system, returns to zero every time

the BDC style custom turret for one particular load does not appeal to me but might to others

Does the zero stop option cost more with the cds voucher?

Nah. its free. As its one rotation if you want to increase distance sight in zero at 200yards or metres and that get it out to 600-650

it doesnt cost any more for the zero stop option . . i simply rang the agent n told them the voucher number and they sent it the next day .. . good service

I got a zero stop ball bearing free from nz asia

No 10 shot will work for the ball. The main problem being is that of the two non zero stop caps I have the hole wasn't in the right place for zero to be zero when I jammed a no 10 shot into it. You could redrill it or do what I did and just order the zero stopped cap from leupold.

Having the zero stop makes it less likely to bump the turret as well.

The ball is in the right place, the post wont be, I had to lift that ring off carefully and re set it so the post stopped the ball at zero

Yeah the zero stop ring can be rotated to any orientation to line it up with the stop in the cap

Is the ring the bit on the scope or is it on the cap?

Take off the dial, the ring is the first thing you see, it has one section raised into a post. Jimmy it up carefully moving around it with a flat head or the like.

You can see the ring with post in first pic

"Stupid" questions are not possible to ask. Questions lets you explore the borders of your knowledge or connect dots you didn't know could be corrected. A good forum is a brilliant place to orient your head in the right direction and give you a better learning curve than making all doing everything without external input.

So please, keep asking. People will answer as long as you're not an opinionated ass.

Do the ball bearing zero stops work on the bigger 20moa VX6 CDS dials?

All Vx6 can have a zero stop
