Always been a NF guy and bought a swfa 5-20x50 for a beat around gun. Question I have is when looking at the turret in the prone position the painted mark that says up and down at bottom of turret is offset to the left of scope centerline. It's really messing with me lol. Is it supposed to be like that? I just figured it would be centered of scope like every other scope inhave ever had.

That's what I figured. Just making sure as I have never had one. Know one thing can't leave it like that it would for sure drive me crazy lol

I have had probaby 8 SS HD scopes in the last 3 years. I have had probably 2 that had the hash marks not line up. It is really annoying. Call them up and they will send a new cap. I took a picture of the alignment and sent it in with the crap cap. Gave the something to reference.

They took care of it both times.

Good little scope though right?
 
If u look the actual centerline hash in post that u align the turret to when u zero it is way left. Turret cap itself is not my issue. It's really noticeable behind scope it's about an 1/8 inch to the left of where it should be. Guess I will give them a call.
 
My ss 5-20 turret doesn't always line up perfect either but it isn't enough to bother me. If you loosen the cap and turn it .1 or. 2 mil in either direction it may line up. Either way you should bring it over for a comparison.
