Do you have a DIY way to have a capped windage turret?

I had contemplated trying to fit a small rubber band on the actual turret and sliding it back into position, hoping the rubber band would provide some resistance between turret, and scope body. I sold the PST so I can't try it now.

Locking windage on all exposed wind turrets, from now on, I say.

I have thought about electrical tape to give me only a half rotation, or just use the electrical tape to seal the whole turret assembly. or just shimming the turret for half a rotation zero stop.

I really like what night force did with the enhanced Atacr, on mine you can not turn the windage turret more then half way ever

It's not wrong.

I like the Bushy ERS that I have. On both turrets you have to pull them away from the scope body to rotate them. They are always locked unless I unlock them.

up just saw the price for LEO's, that will be going on top of my next rifle.


I just put the 3-15 on my 6.8 upper and love it. Really nice for the money. I have the 3-18 Bushy LRHS and this scope is very close up there with the Bushy. up
