leupold cds dials

[deerhunter_98520]

Well I'm picking up a weatherby mark v ultralight in 30-06 next weekend and have been going over scope options...I have a vari x II and have been contemplating getting the cds dials made for it...leupold wants $150 to have everything done.....anyone on here have them? How do you like them

[Smith_22]

Got em for my VX-II and love em.  Mine is on a 7mm-08, and with my zero set at 200 and a muzzle velocity of 2850 with a 140 gr bullet I had enough travel to be able to dial out to 680 yds.  Has a zero stop, clicks have been very true, return to zero with no issues, and they are low profile so they dont get in the way.  They also send you an extra dial for different loads you may work up.  Zeroing is also simple, just sight it in to your zero, loosen a small allen head screw, set your dial to your zero and your done.  You wont regret it.

I use the kenton industries turret knobs. They are cheaper and the customer service is better.

[deerhunter_98520]

Ill look at those but leupolds customer service will keep me a customer for life...i have nothing but great things to say about them, not to mention great optics

I love the leupold scopes.

However, Brett Evans is an awesome rifle builder (many of his guns get national notoriety), he recommended trying kenton. I called them, they got me a set of turrets in 5 days for a hunt I had to go on, and they are really nice turrets. Leupold told me it was going to take 3 weeks, and it still cost more than the Kenton turrets.

the $150 must include converting the scope to a CDS also?  You wont be sorry, they work awesome!

[deerhunter_98520]

Yeah it is...$90 to change it over and $60 for the dials

So Kenton will do the VX-11 ??

I called Kenton last night at 5:15pm (15 minutes after they closed) the gal there answered. She took down info to have the guys call me back today about wether or not the Leupold MARK AR scopes could be fitted with a zero stop.

Heard back today from one guy that they are not setup for zero stops. Then 10 minutes later another guy called me and made a suggestion on how to set the scope up to know what revolution of the scope turret I was on. A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ customer service, some sharp dudes over there.

They will set you up on tier discounts too. The more dials you order over time, the better the pricing will get. I already ordered 2 dials, on the next batch I am going to do 4 more, that will drop the price a noticeable amount.
