Turret for Leupold scopes

From an email from Dan Keene at Reloaders Supplies:

Complete add on turret. Fits Leupold VX 1 to 3 series with click adjustments. Screws straight on to “coin slot adjusters”. On finger adjust models the fingers adjuster caps just prize off and reveal coin slot adjustments beneath. Can be used for elevation or windage. They are sold separately.

My own notes:

I have used these in the past when they were only available as a factory retrofit. Note that if your scope is calibrated in inches (many Loopies are), then the come up will be inches, not MOA. This works OK to about 500 yards, beyond that you need to do some math (see my LR shooting book for a walk through). Dan suggests this as being good for those on a budget who have an existing Leupold but want to shoot a bit longer, but do not have funds for a new scope. I agree. When I started out, there was not much on the market and this was exactly what I did. No need for a windage knob, just dial up and hold off for wind. I still have and use this scope. The clicks are very positive.

Re: Turret for Leupold scopes
These are still not available here in Canada yet, and Leupold would not ship to me directly, so I will wait until our Canadian Leupy firm can get them.
