[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 1059787, member: 13110"] It's more about stopping it from making another revolution and being at the next zero rather than stopping exactly at the correct zero. The Zeiss scopes can be shimmed the same way as the others. Plastic is probably the safest thing to use but I typically use aluminum because I have it on hand. Measure from the bottom of the turret to the scope body and subtract .005. Then go looking for something that will work if you don't have access to a lathe. Usually the turret will go 10-15 clicks past zero before it actually stops but it's easy to bring it back up from there. [/QUOTE]
