[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 584583, member: 307"] Greg, Stoney Point makes some aftermarket turrets but, in my opinion, they are not the best. I have one currently installed on a Leupold 6.5-20X40 and while it is effective enough, it has a "mushy" feel to it. Best bet is, after hunting season, send it to Leupold's Custom Shop and have them install target turrets on your scope. One click equial 1/4" @ 100yds, 1/2" @ 200yds, 3/4" @ 300yds, 1" @ 400yds. That is, the POI will shift this much at the specified range, when the scope is moved one click. A much broader way to look at is, don't focus on the individual "clicks", but think of the numbers on your turrets (i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.). If you move the elevation turret UP from 0 to 1, you have moved it 1 MOA (which is also four "clicks"). This will move your bullets POI UP four inches at 400yds. It will be 8" @ 800yds (one click equal 2" @ 800yds). Hope this helps. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
