    My experience with S&B PMIIs are with the older type knobs , ST & DT ( yellow indicator ) , with those ones , the spacing between clicks is closer on the ST knobs , and wider spacing on the DT knobs , also numbering is different .
    You will not get lost on the knobs on any PMII , as its either stopped or indicated .
    Be aware that they make knobs turn both ways , ie CW & CCW , so if its one scope , its no issue , but if you have more than one PMII , I would advise staying with the same direction knobs , normally , US versions have CCW direction as their main type , until S&B won the USMC contract , all PMIIs where CW , But as usuall the Yanks wanted something different , hence the CCW turn knobs .
    Also , be aware that PMIIs use to be all FFP , thats no longer the case , they have SFP versions as well , so be careful when ordering , that you get what you want , too many options now .

    Now S&B , have a lot of different knobs than the 1st ST & DT knobs .

    FYI SFP CCW are a special order which will take longer. FFP and CW all the way, it's how it's supposed to be.

    FFP, CW/CCW doesn't really matter zero stopped. Engage brain before firing

    @Nibblet but what if you are in the middle of a drone strike at McDonald's with an amphibious sherman tank on your tail. Unless you had Miami_BJ with you you would need to be sure you could dial with muscle memory.

    This is a valid point.

    CW/CCW doesn't matter as long as they're all the same.
    SFP/FFP, FFP would be my pick.

    Would I still get my cheeseburger in this event??

    I know I definitely haven't lost muscle memory when it comes to eating those delicious bad boys. CW/CCW doesn't matter I'll pac-man the hell out of them.

    I think is more of a question about TPS and RRP. You really need to avoid BND.
