One of the Optics Planet $116 specials should be here Saturday and since I got such a good deal on it, I'm thinking I need to spend more money on it. shocked

Question: Do these track well enough to make the $50 custom turret worthwhile?

I'm not sure I'd trust it, even with extensive range testing.

Are you speaking from experience?

Anyone with some "real life" experience with these turrets?

I recalled EFW saying he had some put on so I asked him. Said he had them put on a 6x but hasn't dealt with it much. You could PM him to at least get an impression- he will respond. He and I are both solid fans of the FFII scopes. I alerted the brethren here on a screaming deal that many happily took advantage of not long ago.

I now have two different Fullfield's and each track fine and never shifted on me. Admittedly one is a fairly recent purchase but I had no issues or surprises zeroing it in. I have since used it multiple times in the field. The other is now the oldest scope I have on any rifle and I have replaced more expensive ones in its stead. I used it to take and make the (by far) longest shot I ever attempted.

While the clicks could be a little more tactile like Meopta ot Weavers tend to be, these feel identical to my VX3 adjustments . Mine track fine and the scope is every bit as bright the Leupold..

Thanks Ken, I'm fond of my FF & FFII's too but haven't fooled with the turrets or an E1 before.
