    The turret can move if carried in say a elberstock pack or similar or on a sling but that is true of any turret.
    Not a lockable one

    @L.T could you post some pictures of these turrets, seems to be very little information about them.

    Got one on my 284....awesome glass, was looking at a clearing at 1100meters, awesome clarity.
    Just need to send away for MOA CDS dials.

    I recently just changed one on my 6XC for a nightforce only for the MOAR recticle.....I feel the VX 6 is on par with the SHV.

    Do the turrets clicks feel any different with them on at all? First impressions of them?

    No the turrets clicks don't feel much different, they still feel mushy compared to the purpose built longrange scopes like Nightforce etc.... However they are nicer to use especially on the windage dial because the numbers are round the right way as you can see in the picture. I like them better than the standard CDS moa I had before these.

    Still attaches to the existing adjustment stem so clicks will be unchanged

    Did you have to special order them, or did your free CDS voucher work for them?

    I specially ordered them from the leupold custom shop, as I think I had already used my free CDS voucher. It would be no fuss to send leupold an email and ask that question. In my experience very good customer service.
