Rifle Scopes adjusting turrets on 3 - 9 super sniper.

[rocky_creek]

I have read that the 3- 9 supersniper turrets are adjusted with a single screw ( there are not 3 set screws on the sides like the fixed power scopes). I have looked at the stainless device on the top of the turret with a magnifying glass. It does not look like a screw, it does not look like an allen screw. Is there a special tool for this? Thanks

After you zero the scope you back out the single stainless allen screw on top of each turret. You then pull the turret away from the scope just slightly as you rotate the knob towards zero. The screw is loose enough when the turret rotates without clicking. Turn the knob to zero and snug the single screw back up. That is the only screw involved.

It is an SAE sized Allen key. I can't remember which but any small Allen key set will have the correct size.

I'll try it but it looks like a round hole to me. Thanks.

That worked. Damn if I can see the allen head part though. It's a wonder I can still shoot like Davy Crockett.
