I have a redfield 3200 scope and I have a question? The turrets will not turn all the way to the bottom they still show 4 lines so how do I make the turrets go all the way down? Thanks for your answer, Hank45

You might also try going the other way around,if that works it might be the cap was installed incorrectly.Could be a simple fix.

Do the turrets match, windage and elevation look the same?

SVT_Tactical They both look the same and they both have the same problem> Could it have any thing to do with the screw on top of the turret? Hank45

it could be that the original owner lost the turrents that went with it an those aren't the correct ones. I dont' know. You can always send it in to redfield and have them look at it.

The marks are probably just to be used as a guide. Not necessarily determining the full range of movement. The fact that you said that both turrents have extra lines suggest this. Check if the scope has the full number of clicks of elevation and windage movement that the manufacture spec. give? This will tell if there is anything screwy going on inside the scope.

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.
Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow Now the rules have changed again. |

SVT_Tactical, I spoke with Mr. Parson the younger and told him the problem I think I have and he told me not to mess with the scope but to send it to him and he will check it out. It leaves Monday morning. Talk later, Hank45 |
