Thread: Vx3 zero stop mod any tips or advice ?

So I have a vx3 4.5-14x40 CDS and I'm looking at doing the zero stop mod that I've seen on here.
Anyone who has done this got any tips or advice ?
Looking at my dial and scope if I install either a plastic post or ball bearing in the hole that is pre drilled in the cap it will mean my "zero" is effectively 3 clicks up so that it will allow 1 full rotation (60 clicks) before hitting the stop




So if you see the stopper on the scope it sits directly in line with the indicator mark on the scope body.
I seem to remember reading somewhere the piece the stopper is on is press fit. So could I lever it off and move it around so the the ball bearing or post can be fitted to the cap and then allow the zero to sit on zero ? Hope that makes sense ?
Also can anyone advise the best option for a ball bearing or plastic post to fit into the cap ?
