Quick Tac Turret fix if your hitting the bush.....?
Lol, first of all; get your head out of the gutter ref the title.:XD::XD:
For the last couple of days, the turrets on my scope have been weighing on my mind. Some people are like...you will knock your zero *blah blah* don't get me wrong, a very valid point. From reading on forums, most ppl are worried about the turret doing a full 360 degree twist without them knowing. Not the fact that they click over a couple of times from zero. Because let's be honest;
1. Rapid engagement at 25-50m won't effect your initial bullet trajectory that much.
2. It's the POSSIBLE 360 degrees of rotation that would have you second guessing yourself when you line that trophy up after you have just been the ultimate ninja through that patch of Manuka and bumped your gear around.
So this is just a quick fix that I conjured up while driving home today. Please keep in mind;
1. I realise you can get target turrets put on the Sightron, but bugger that at $135USD excluding postage.
2. This won't stop ALL rotation, but it will stop it rotating more than about 180 degrees (or more, depending on the rubber). A quick check will still be required prior to engagements.
3. I know some scopes have turret locks (inc the 2016 Sightrons ($$$)) but I have this scope, love the glass and I'm not about to cough up for another one just yet...
TBH, this seems to work just fine;

This is the 7mm08 T3 set up for bush. A lot lighter than I thought it would be. Those Harris bi-pods are killer heavy, might need to look at the smaller/lighter Bushbuck for this purpose...
Additionally, you can purchase the adapter so that stock is foldable to either side as well. This rifle can pack down seriously small if required for those longer "walk ins" etc.

Set up for mid range, open country (now has rubber on turrets):

Can easily say, that this is the perfect all rounder that I have been looking for.
Hope this helps someone out.
