[QUOTE="milanuk, post: 15613, member: 376"] 4mesh063, I guess this comes down to one thing I don't like about 1/8 minute clicks... I'm entirely too used to 15 minutes per revolution, ala Leupold (and others) 1/4 minute click systems. My Weaver V16 has 12, and I though it was weird. As long as its whole numbers of clicks, I can work w/ it. It's nice when the click value is *really* as advertised, as in 1/8 or 1/4 minute, but I have that Sightron where the 1/8 minute clicks (0.125) are closer to 0.150. Kind of messes up being able to count 'minutes', as 5 'minutes' on the turret equals about 6 minutes in reality. Again, w/ a good drop chart, it's workable. I'm considering just putting the SII up for sale and applying the funds towards a better scope and being done w/ it for good. I don't personally have that much need for 1/8 minute clicks as a general rule. But now that I actually got one scope that could really use them (old steel Weaver T6), it doesn't have them. Go figure. But the 1/4 minute clicks are dead nuts on, no question about it. So it's a keeper in my book! Monte [/QUOTE]
