[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 158367, member: 25"] Dave, You woke up cranky! CLICKS are a perfect descriptive for the little sound made by a good turret when you rotate one notch or whatever causes the sound. Only problem is that any good shooter has lost so much hearing that he cannot detect the sound of a CLICK anymore. Hell, I couldn't hear it if it made a sound like clanging two trashcan lids together. You are about the same only you got them hearing-aide dealies. I am getting to were I cannot read lips so may have to get some of those things. As for using it as a description of adjustment. Which is better - "Give me a half minute left." or "Give me two clicks left." The guys I shoot with all handle the two clicks left better every time. Plus don't tell me you haven't used the term as an abreviation of Kilometer. Now I don't know what in hell a kilometer is in yards or miles but since they made Canada a metric country we all say, "Go about five clicks, then turn at the McDonalds...". Now here is one for you, should that be CLICKS or KLICKS. Heavy stuff for so early in the morning. Good luck at the gunshow, you seekin-on something in particular? I just got me a .338 Lapua, time to start hurlin' some bigger boolits. Catshooter, there is a cougar wandering around in one of our cities these days. You got any ideas what they should do about that [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
