Is it possible to take any Zeiss conquest scope and change the turrets from hunting to target? Any idea how much it would cost and if its a must to send the scope to a custom shop to do so? I guess I´ll be doing quite of paper shooting (and hunting) with my next scope - what are the downsides of having target turrets (bulky - not waterproof???)
THanX.

You can send it in to Zeiss. They will put them on for $60 a knob.
Your scope will still be waterproof, but the knobs of course are not protected from being turned by something, or hit and damaged. Edited by trigger29 - February/20/2009 at 11:48 |

Retrofitted turret shafts by Zeiss is definitely the way to go and it retains the factory warranty. I had it done for my Diavari and now I can put on any custom turret knob I want. kentonindustries.com has the best selection of knobs I've seen and they will even custom make them to match the exact ballistics of your gun. If you switch your scope to a different gun, you can swap the knobs to match. |
