 I have 2  6.5 x 20 Monarch i bought last spring when they were on sale. I don't much care for the target turrets at least the windage one, when you are carrying your rifle.
 Is it possible to change them out for regular caps & turrets? If so where would you find them?

You should have BOTH the low profile and the target turrets with your scope. Mine did.
 
Did you buy the scopes new?
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

 Yes i purchased them both new.
 I have the target turrets and the other turrets & caps are as tall as the target turrets not low profile.  The caps are 1 1/4 " long.
 Thanks

So with the low profile turrets on, it looks like the scope in the picture?
The covers are too high for you, right?
 
You could leave the covers off and take note of where your W/E dial numbers on your low profile turrets, checking to make sure they don't move....??? Not ideal, I know.  
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

Yes, that's what it looks like. The windage one on the side makes it akward to carry.
 I also have a 4x12 and was wondering about putting caps and turrets similar to it on the others, if it was possible.
 It's not that important, one's on a cooper 22-250 & the other is on a ruger 77 varmit 220 swift and it's not that i pack them around much. i just wondered if it could be done And this seem's to be a good place to ask! Lot's of knowledge here i think so it don't hurt to ask.
 Thanks
