Wife and I went on a little walkabout yesterday and I packed my 22-250 topped with a VX3 3-10X CDS elevation only. We stopped once and I shot a half dozen times at some rocks across the canyon. I adjusted the scope for the range needed and set it back to the 200 yard zero when done shooting.
I'll be damned if when we got back to the pickup, the custom elevation cap was gone. Somewhere along the way the set screws must have worked loose and it dropped off. I went back and retraced my steps, some of the walk was on snow, and I had hopes, but no luck.
Anyway, check those set screws occasionally. Losing the cap had never entered my mind. Fortunately, I have the zero stops so I wasn't lost on where the scope might be set.
