So I just done all this after sites range for 100 yards and I can still twist my cap in either direction several times why

[@kenjohnson958]

Why does mine twist left when I have it shimed ?

[@scottharris5714]

When you replace the turret cap and align it to zero after putting your shims in (in your video you wanted to zero stop it with the turret at 2 minutes), will the turret cap go past zero as you dial back down from a long range shot? Or is not a hard stop and you just know that when you are at zero, for this example, the turret is at two minutes?

New to the channel but very intrigued on what your doing on this channel especially the bobble head for parallax , my question is say im at 100 yards and i move my terrets up 6 moa to hit a good grouping close to bulls eye, now do i take off the terret and rest to zero? in order for it to be a true zero and not have to adjust at 6 moa ?

So the horizontal lines on the face of the elevation turret mean nothing? I have this scope, zeroed at 200, and I sit with my zero stop at the 4 mark. So if it doesn’t sit at zero what’s the point of those? I’m new to long range stuff.

i am wondering the same thing????

[@scottharris5714]

what caliber of gun are you shooting? That is about where I landed on my 30-06, and I have the 4-16x44 HS LR

@@scottharris5714I have same scope on 3006 rifle, I was under the impression that the turret would not twist back past the 100 yards I sited the rifle in and shimed. Turret at range as well.
Now I can still twist the turret and not have a clue where it was

Don't suppose you know the code numbers for the Butler Creek lens caps do you? I'm not sure whether to buy the exact fit or, or a little smaller to make sure they're a good tight fit? According to my vernier, mt eye piece is 42 mm and the objective is 57.5 mm.

Or just use the marked elevation turret as designed
