Got mine about a week ago and had to send in so no. I doubt they will " fix" them. It's probably more cost effective to fix the ones people complain about then fix all of them.I'm hoping the newer ones come fixed haha
Glass wise I've hear everything from being so close to ZCO and TT to just a touch better than gen 2 to blowing the mark 5 out of water. Seems all over the place when reading. Where do you guys stack the glass at? I'm hoping better than my xrs3. I also hope its better than the mk5 and atarc glass
You prolly did and I prolly read it and forgot haha I'm excited to try it out. I really like the xrs3 so if it's that much better I will be set for lifeIt is a clear step up from XRS3, which is just as good as Mk5 and XTR3. Also better than 7-35 ATACR, which is much closer to the XRS3 than it is to the G3 IMHO. It is indeed very close to ZCO and TT - but I've written this before...
I can see that. I found mk machine has the simple plastic ring to fix the locking turret issue. I'm use to mushy turrets with the bushnell xrs3Got mine about a week ago and had to send in so no.

By all reports if you send it in they fix it and they are gtg.I can see that. I found mk machine has the simple plastic ring to fix the locking turret issue. I'm use to mushy turrets with the bushnell xrs3
Be sure to specify you just want the elevation turret deleted I forgot to and both are gone lol. I might be eating the label on this one cause of my ignorance but the turrets are excellent now
Yeah admittedly i was hoping it wouldn’t lift. But i don’t foresee myself pulling up to turn it and it haphazardly being an issue. I do truthfully think had they not done a locking design the turret would be perfect. I really like the size it’s kinda reminiscent of the premier stuff. That and a capped windage and maybe the color black and boom. Perfection.I think an insert is probably the way to go. Retaining the up and down function just seems annoying to me and a little counterintuitive to create a difference in how the elevation and windage turrets work.
Wait i can get the elevation turret to not slide up also? Lol damn i gotta contact them againI requested that the elevation turret lock be removed and that the turret would not pop up. Came back just as I asked. Mounted it up and shot it for the first time today. Pretty stoked on this scope. Turrets are now just as good as my Gen II and the glass is a very noticeable improvement.
Yes you can.. a buddy of mine had the pop up eliminated alsoWait i can get the elevation turret to not slide up also? Lol damn i gotta contact them again
I sent one in a couple of weeks ago and this was my exact expeience as well. I don't believe that this was always the case with some of the early scopes that were returned this spring but Vortex definitely seems to have this figured out now.I just got my gen lll back from having the turrets fixed, and imho the turrets are now very close to perfect. My main complaint was how easily the lock would re-engage, but there now seems to be a detent which is great. Vortex was fast getting the work done and getting it back to me which is also great. My only question is why these aren’t coming from the factory this way now? Why are new scopes having to be sent back to be made right? Anyway, if you have a gen lll the turret update is definitely worth doing.
liberty optics....as always with vortexAre you guys still finding them for around $2000? I called optics planet and that would do a little over $2500
what's lead time with liberty now for that veterans day sale? still 60 days?
I ordered one from Scott on 10-15. I received it today. I see no problem with the turrets thus farwhat's lead time with liberty now for that veterans day sale? still 60 days?

This is just stupid. Why would a vendor sell you a product below their cost? That makes absolutely no sense. And depending on what type deal the vendor has with the manufacturer, I'm willing to bet not everyone gets the same price sheet....especially when some vendors around here rat out other vendors around here for giving guys deals they can't/won't match...
So I finally looked at one and that one at the store had decent clicks the locking turret made a small click but when spinning turret it would fall. I think I'd be happy with the turrets and add the mkm plastic to stop the locking.
Thx! I just ordered the MKM spacer. Didn't know this product existed
Just send it to vortex and let them delete the lock and turret liftSo I finally looked at one and that one at the store had decent clicks the locking turret made a small click but when spinning turret it would fall. I think I'd be happy with the turrets and add the mkm plastic to stop the locking.
I might do that when mine shows up. But that was the first one I played with. For a quick easy fix if your happy with turret clicks that spacer I think is a great option. I was kind of disappointed that the turret fell while spinning.Just send it to vortex and let them delete the lock and turret lift
Also another thing I noticed on that demo one I went to spin the turret to see how many mils and wasn't much I'm sure you have to play with the turrets after sighting in and everything.
I'm sure that turret was messed up from people.Mine has 23.5 from a 100yd zero on a 20moa rail.
Sounds about right. I have 30.5 Mils available with a 30 MOA rail + 20 MOA mount. I didn’t check mine out of the box but if the zero stop is set in the middle it would have around 18 Mils as shipped.I'm sure that turret was messed up from people.
On mine out of the box, I could go up 18.1 mills. Once the zero stop was removed I could dial down 18.1 mills. Total travel is 36.2 mills, which is exactly what Vortex states in their specs.Also another thing I noticed on that demo one I went to spin the turret to see how many mils and wasn't much I'm sure you have to play with the turrets after sighting in and everything.
