    What are you wanting to know exactly?

    The VX6hd has a locking windage turret that matches the elevation turret.
    The windage turret on the VX5hd is able to be reset to zero and used for dialing if you want too/need too.

    Can you get an exposed turret retro fitted to the Windage Adjustment To make dialing for the wind easier.

    As it's a feature on the vx6hd I'm sure it could be done. Chances are you'll be out of pocket for $279 odd much like fitting a zl2 to an older vx6. The lads at nzasia will be the ones to ask.

    I tryied fit a windage off my VXR patrol to my normal VXR, both 3-9x40
    couldnt fit because the normal one didnt have a tall enough aluminum spindle inside for the turret to attach
