Sent in a Leupold 2-7x33 VX-I to Leupold to retrofit a CDS MOA dial. Forgot to ask if zero stop was possible with the plain MOA dial, but the scope came back with no zero stop. This scope is mounted on a 16" 6.5 Grendel in AR15 config.

No zero stop, NO problem!! If you desire a zero stop, it's easy to do.

Buy a 1/16" diameter ball bearing. You'll also need a 1/16" drill bit and a drill press or a hand drill.

If you take off the CDS dial cap and look on the inside, there is a spot drilled for a bearing. Not sure where this spot is in relation to the numbers marked outside on other caps, but this one is on the #6 hashmark. Decide where you want your zero stop (exactly @ 0 or a bit past 0) and mark/drill the cap to accomodate the 1/16" bearing. You don't want to go too deep as this will defeat the purpose and the cap will rotate past with nothing to keep it from stopping. For this cap, I set the zero 2 clicks past zero.

Put a dab of grease to hold the bearing in place...
