  Does anyone here know of any companies that will change the mil dot to a target dot on a SS 20x scope? If you do would you please let me know?
 Thanks

Never heard of any company doing anything like that on the SS.  What do you want the target dot for? Why not sell or trade in the SS and get a scope with the target dot already?

 I have 5 of the 20x's,I like the clarity of the glass, I shoot mostly 200 yard BR and I don't want to spend $700+ on something I may not like.
 I would like to go with 1/4" dot instead of the 1/8th that most are, and I already know about the quality that I have, so why change brands.

Many target shooters such as myself prefer the target dot actually that and the 4plex is all I buy however most scopes now are produced  with "tactical or military" type reticle and it simply unnecessary clutter for most shooters, it is more difficult to find a good target dot or  find a manufacture who will replace an existing reticle.

The dot on a FFP will disappear on the lower magnifications. The dot needs to be on a SFP to be useful on a variable 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.

Gotcha.  I just dont think anyone does those things.  have you guys checked out the weavers or leupolds?
I've seen more shooters with these than anything else at BR comps.

T. K. Lee, http://www.scopedot.com/  used to do a lot of those. Don't know if they can do an SS though.
