Hi I have 3 weaver grandslam scopes (1) 3-9 &(2)4-14s.I love them, but I must be using them to much.One 4-14 is on a 300wsm and I'm dialing up to 20 m.o.a and it is very repeatable.I have emailed weaver and heared nothing back. Dose anyone know of any after market dials or new weaver dials in the USA. I live in New Zealand I can`t find any here. I have been culling feral goats so they are used & abused.

I had the exact same problem on my G.S. 4.5-14, the lettering is gold and hard to read even when new, after a few years it all wore off, making it impossible.  Maybe weaver will warrenty this?

I'd bet they'll give u a couple new turrets. U'll probably have to call them though. Sometimes that company's hard to get ahold of anyone. Just keep trying.

ATK bought the company from Meade so they may be able to help.Any time a scope appears used and abused be prepared to pay for a replacement part.I noticed that wearing gloves and while playing with your objective/turret does cause numbers to wear off quickly.
