Rifle Scopes Leup MK 6 question

[garandman]

Maybe I'm lazy or stupid or still in a a turkey induced coma....

...but I've read the instruction booklet over and over, and still can't figger out how the elevation turret revolution counter works.

My ballistic calc says that with a 600 yard zero (338NM) , I don't get to a full revolution till beyond 1200 yards and a mile is 2.2 revs, but still I'd like to know how the rev counter works.

Any help is appreciated.

The rev counter is a small cylinder which will protrude from the top of the dial to let you know when you are on your second time around.

So it doesn't show 1 / 2 / 3 etc revs, but just pops up on the second rev?

You only get 2 revs.

Got it. Thanx! Darn me, but I just couldn't see how it was gonna count 3 / 4/ / 5 revs etc....

Technically, there are three revs. There's one below the zero. Kind of a gimmick to claim more elevation.

I'll use holdover for 100 - 500, setting the zero stop at 600.
