Anyone with experience with accuracy as it relates to repeatability of using knobs. Can I depend on accuracy of knob adjustments for windage and elevation? Thanks for any and all info anyone can provide.

You won't have a problem.  I have their 2-12X and 3-18x scopes with no issues.  These are capped turrets, so I haven't needed to spin the turrets once I got it sighted in.  I have the Firedot LR Duplex and TMOA reticles so am holding for any shots.

You planning on using their CDS turret?

Ernie, Sounds like me. I am a totally confused person. It is FUN though.

I am going to work with the dial to see if I can't make it work as it is suppose to. Al
