Scope Turret Magnifier

[Slick8]

This popped on my IG feed the other day and I decided to try one out.

I can't read the turrets without my readers on. At the range it's not an issue but in a hunting situation and low light it's an annoyance at a minimum and could be a hindrance.

I'll post up my thoughts once installed. First set will be on a VX6-HD 34mm tube. Those turrets are very low so I assume I'll have to raise my head slightly to read them.

I saw these somewhere else and was going to try them out. I forgot to but I am in the same shape as you

Thanks

I'm looking forward to hearing if they work — and if anyone else has other suggestions to improve the visibility of turret settings.


Because I'm in the same boat, guessing rather than reading turret settings....

I have one mounted on a Burris Signature HD scope and it does help, without glasses I still struggle a little, doesn't make it clear for me but the numbers are large enough to be distinguishable. With glasses on it's great, clear and large numbers. Without it I would need glasses on and still pay close attention when dialing.

I have an Arken SH-4 Gen II which has pretty large numbers on the elevation dial so I have more trouble seeing my anti-cant device (bubble level). I had to move it all the way out near my front ring to be able to see it without my readers.

MK is great to deal with and their prices are generally EXCELLENT!

I bit the bullet (not bad for a Saturday morning) and went to full progressive prescription glasses. No more glasses on, glasses off, where are my glasses, etc. Not for everyone and actually not for me all the time. Not even great for handgun iron sight shooting as the part of the lens that focuses is so low I'd have to tip my head uncomfortable backwards to get a very clear sight picture. But as long as I adjust the ocular on my scope for use with my prescriptions all good. I can shoot, see bubble, see turrets, read chrono, see my primers and brass clearly, etc.

In fact I have only had these since August 2021 so not sure what Ii will think a year or two later.

Getting old definitely has its challenges. I need one of these on my fishing rig. Really struggle with seeing mono.
