[QUOTE="THEIS, post: 1342700, member: 99239"] Hello Harper, How about you posting a picture of a scope and lets see if I can break it through visual contact via the interwebs lololol. The S&B locking turret was on their PSR prototype, somehow I managed to bind the turret revolution between unlocked and locked position while in the middle of a turret revolution. The German engineers couldn't figure out how it happened at the booth but 2 months later the new prototype showed up and I was not able to replicate the issue. Then upon touring facility in Germany they showed me the internals of what bound up, how it bound up and the internals of the new ones to show how it could not be bound up. The Premier reticles was 2 of the first production series of the 5-25x56 model. We had heard some possible issues with elevation/windage adjustments having issues in cold weather. So I took 2 out to the mountains one night that it was set to drop below 0. So I set the rifles outside while I monitored temperature. Once it dropped to 5deg F I shot the rifles and adjusted 5 mils each direction and fired a round with each adjustment. When the temp got to -11deg F the windage adjustments were not shown on POI. POI remained same even though dialing 5 mils each way. Sent them back for diagnosis and next production batch had new O rings. Problem never occurred again with us. THEIS [/QUOTE]
