[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 870751, member: 34084"] Oops, you're right. 10.5 IPHY is for the Z3 4-12x50. The Z5 turret range is 13.25 IPHY. Thanks for the correction. That's too big spread for one custom turret. Your max range likely will be about 650 yds at sea level, and nearly 700 yds at 7,000 ft. Consider using the stock BT, and adjusting the indicator rings to suit the conditions. Or you could buy one custom turret for the higher altitude and use the stock BT for sea level. You will likely end up using the stock BT more than you think. Any time you change altitudes or ammunition, you may need a different custom turret. With the BT, you simply calculate the new ring positions, reset them on the turret, and you're done. [/QUOTE]
