    oh wait, do you have decently usable turrets currently or the really shitty ones that came on VX3 where you can't really reset them properly? I haven't played with a VX6

    Well, it's hard for me to tell really, having never used "good turrets." I've seen a few people complaining about VX-6's that don't click. Well, these do click, but you feel it more than hear it. I saw someone say that if you wind them up or down about 50 times then they feel much better, can't remember who.

    As for if they reset properly, how do you mean? As in, dial up 10 clicks, then back down 10 clicks and see if you're still zero'd?

    I haven't really tried that as I haven't been dialing - i've just being zeroing for 200yds and using the holdovers on my reticle. Which, according to Strelok, line up perfectly at 300, 400, 450, 500 yards at 15x zoom for my load. And I am happy using those holdovers. But, I have the opportunity next R&R for some very long range hare shooting. So for anything over 500 I am going to have to dial if I still want decent zoom. Hence all the questions .

    Edit - many apologies for completely hijacking this thread.
