[QUOTE="Autorotate19, post: 432081, member: 20956"] I received my turret in the mail two Fridays ago. I put it on my scope and zeroed my scope at 100 yards and then went to the exact target that I developed my data for in almost the same conditions. Turned the knob to 920 for 917 yards and shot. The bullet landed around 3 moa low. I shot again and again and shot a group around 1 moa all around 3 moa low........???? So then I counted the clicks it took me to get 920 on the knob compared to the 24.5moa I gave them for the knob. According to the knob it only takes me 19.0 moa to get to that range? I then counted clicks up to there to get 24.5 moa and hit dead center. So the knob is off...... I called kenton industries and explained to them my dilemma and they basically told me that the data I gave them must be off. They also said that they normally dont do knobs just off of one set of yardage data. I then asked him how they figured I was 3.5 moa difference from the knob to the data set and he said the conditions i had my knob made for make that much difference. I shot the data at 3,000 65F and had them make the turret for 5,500ft and 45degrees. I know there isnt 3.5 moa difference because I shot the gun in those conditions and was no more than 1 or 2 clicks off. I then kindly asked if there was any way to fix this problem and was told to zero my knob at 917yards and then just go with that. I then asked " wont all the other yardages be off?" He replied " yeah but just a little." To me this is unacceptable for long range hunting. When I spent $110 dollars on a target knob I expected it to be dead on and its not. I cant go out and shoot at game with a gun that is "pretty close" at long range, its not fair to the game. I was also very disappointed by the way I was treated. The gentlemen I spoke with was very condescending and talked to me like I didn't know what I was talking about. I'm not trying to bash someone on this forum but I am just giving you my personal experience with them. I personally will never give them my business again or send anyone their way.
