Ok...someone make me look stupid please.
My windage turret will not turn at all. How does the lock work?
I wasn't even aware it had a lock on the windage until I looked at the online manual, still no luck though.
I'm hoping I'm missing something obvious....

Pull it out and then turn. It is locked when pressed in.

My first thought was to try that, but it won’t pull out.
Edit: Well it took some pliers...but it did pop out. Thanks for the info!

To those that have bought the LRTSi, do you find the reticle too thick at all for shooting small groups? Do you find the illumination usable in fading daylight?
I had an LRHS, sold it and wish I hadn’t have. So I’m considering one of these, don’t know that I need the illumination tho, especially if the reticle is significantly thicker than the non-illum model

I don't have mine yet so I can't answer your question, but the FDE version is non-illuminated.

So I’m considering one of these, don’t know that I need the illumination tho, especially if the reticle is significantly thicker than the non-illum model Still easy to shoot small groups with, especially if your aiming point is well suited to the reticle. Group below was shot with an LRTSi. Bushnell did the illumination right. On its highest setting, daylight visible. On its lowest setting, barely visible at night, with something for every situation in between. That being said, I’ve never needed to use the illum because the reticle is bold enough during legal shooting hours so that I haven’t needed it. John

I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.

Just ordered one of these and ran into a minor complication in the shipping process. One phone call this morning and Camera Land resolved it immediately. Didn't even put me on hold to do it. I really appreciate the way these guys take care of customers.

Just talked to Doug and put one of these on layaway, Bushnell Elite Tactical LRTS 3-12x44 - G3 Illuminated. Had the Bushnell Elite Tactical LRTS 4-18 x 44 - Illuminated on the close out but ended up trading it for a Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14 x 40mm Side Focus plus cash with a buddy. I liked the scope but for my hunting use I really didn't need the the 18 power and felt the 4 power was a bit much on the low side although 3 isn't a lot lower. The scope isn't any smaller or lighter and although I don't have it in hand yet as long as it is built like the 4-18 model I will be pleased. I don't think or at least am aware of another non China made scope with the features and glass quality (assumed) since I don't have it in hand yet. I must say Doug was a pleasure to work with and gave me answers to questions I had in regard to other options i'd considered. To many a 50mm objective is preferable, for me on my hunting rifle is too much. For those curious I am in Alaska shooting a Sauer Model 101 XT in .300 win Mag, its not a heavy rifle so the additional weight of the scope isn't an issue, if I again saw my self sheep hunting I might consider a lighter scope.Seven hundred dollars isn't cheap but it isn't $2000.00 dollars either and considering these aren't seconds and originally had a retail price of roughly $1200.00 dollars come with a life time warranty, for the price and quality of glass and features; if this scope fits your requirements you'd be hard pressed to find a better scope for the price. I wish to thank Doug and appreciate the price!

Congrats on the new scope 8mm. You're gonna love that one.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

8mmRem-good write and congrats.. I'm still thinking hard on the FDE version. I'm in no hurry, so maybe, just maybe there will be a Black Friday sale price that I simply can't resist.

We are running low on these scopes, however, we do have an open box for $669.99, give me a call if you want it. Just also got a Bushnell Elite Tactical DMR II 3.5-21x50 - G3 Illuminated (Open Box) for only $1,049.99

What do you guys think about this scope being used with a .22LR rimfire bolt action for mostly range work 25-200 yards and some woods hunting for gray squirrels?
