S&B MTII Users

[W6SPK]

I have a PMII 6-36 with the DT35 elevation turret and ST capped windage. Before I bought it, I knew I would want to get the windage turret changed for sure, I want an exposed locking windage. I also wasn't sure if I would like the DT35 elevation and at the time assumed I would want it swapped for the DTII+.

Now that I have in in hand, I don't hate the DT35 elevation and also don't want to further limit the available elevation travel with the DTII+ (30.5mil), which means, if I am going to swap the elevation turret, I would be going with the MTII.

My question is for those that have used the MTII turret; how do you guys like it? Do you like the .05mil clicks or do you feel it is too fine an adjustment that just slows down dialing?

I have all the above mentioned turrets on 6-36 scopes.

The MTII is a great turrett, but I would be lying if I said it isnt kind of a pain to make adjustments on the clock in competition. The layout of the turrets also consists of to many markings in my opinion to be used in stressful condtitions, atleast for me. But for other applications its is a different story.

S&B, if you are watching, make a 1cm/.1mil MT option with the full elevation of the 6-36 available.

Found this picture on S&B social media, maybe hold on before making any decisions..

Looks like 5revolutions, 8mil per revolution of a total 40mils. That is also a new LPI scope, assume a 6-36. In other words like the existing MTII but in .1mils and not cm, looks alot cleaner.

A good option added to the lineup, if/when released.
Even though 10mil revolutions would be nice I am not complaining, been waiting for this..

Something to consider is that the MTC feature will provide you with a clunk every 10 clicks. This makes it possible to get to go in 0.5 mil increments pretty quickly. It's probably a liability if you are making adjustments in excess of 1.5 to 2.0 full mil adjustments if you start to lose track, especially if you add in a time constraint.

Someone on here had mentioned they thought using the turret was like reeling in a fishing reel which I can definitely see. If your targets are within a few mils of each other, you like and actually use the MTC feature and have a reasonable amount of time to make adjustments, I think the MTII turrets are a great option.

The MT2+ is the best turret I have used. Yes, even better than the glorious TT.

Yeah...not for everyone. But for me nearly all my S&B,s have the MT turrets ( .5cm) and i love them!!
