[QUOTE="cummins cowboy, post: 614123, member: 28348"] leupolds target turrets are about as tall as I can imagine going and are still covered, check out graybull's scope those are the target turrets and are covered when you want them to be. it sounds like you are worried about bumpping them, I still think the CDS is a great idea so many people say it means you are stuck to one load, but everyone seems to forget that all the factors everyone talks about only come into play beyond 600 yards. my turret is set for a load that is 70fps faster that what my current load shoots. one of these days I will change out the turret cap, but I just add a click at 600 yards, 2 clicks at 800, and 4 clicks when I get to 1000 yards. BDC turrets are not rocket science and they work regardless of conditions its easy to add or take away clicks from your baseline. thats how the marines unertl scopes worked that were used up until recently. They had a turret that actually only adjusted to the ranges they wanted to shoot, be it 600, 800, etc, then a veneer adjustment allowed deviation from it 1/2 moa at a time, adding clicks or taking them away depending on conditions is the same thing.
