[QUOTE="Ckleeves, post: 1156361, member: 83259"] Are you comparing specific scopes like a NF NXS with zero stop and a NF SHV with zero set? Most manufactures "zero stops" ( or whatever you want to call them) all work a little differently but the idea is the same, you can't rotate the turret down past a designated stop that you set. Zero stop on a NF you still have to rotate the turret down to hit your stopping point ( say a 200 yard zero) it doesn't reset automatically. Same with Zero set on a SHV, it just is a less complex system that basically bottoms the turret out so that it can't keep rotating down. Zero stop is more expensive but is more precise. Zero set your still never going to get off a full rotation so it works just fine it just might be a click off if you bottom the turret out in the dark by feel rather then visually verifying the turret position. I'm not sure if this answers your question or not. I think you can find videos of pretty much all the manufacturers systems online. [/QUOTE]
