[QUOTE="JungleShooter, post: 2519535, member: 110729"] Cody, now you have me wondering if your engineering skills and creativity also have some [B]DIY solution for those turrets that don't move up/down (locking turrets)[/B].... Because I have this otherwise great scope (3-12x44) that is usually on pigeon duty. Most shots are around 60y, so I get away with 3-4 mil elevation. But there is one spot that is around 80y. And that requires me to dial a full revolution = 6 mil. And it has happened not once, not twice, but three times(!) already that I have not dialed the elevation back to zero. And then kept wondering why my shots didn't kill them rotten sky rats..... 🤦🏻♂️ Last week I did it again. 😖 So, is there a zero stop option for that kind of scope? Or can you think of [B]some contraption[/B] I can attach to the scope [B]that allows me to click/ switch/ slide "something"[/B] when I dial the turret up that will [B]remind me[/B] that it is 1, or 2, or 3 revolutions above zero? It would serve as a [B]"manual mechanical turret turn indicator" [/B](MMTTI®). I was thinking of a little electronic contraption, a three-way switch (not for any electricity, just as mechnical indicator). However, such a switch seems a little prone to get bonked and switched accidentially. Anything like that would be great. I just don't know what contraptions are out there that would work as MMTTI....
