There\u2019s a small \u201cindicator ring\u201d on the turret that you can move around, but it\u2019s worthless as it moves so easily it changes positions under recoil.<\/p>\n<p>Considering that, as well as the fact that the turrets are capped, the Classic Series 1-6X24 should very much be considered a \u201cset it and forget it\u201d optic when it comes to your turrets.<\/p>\n<p>As long as you\u2019re careful to put them back in their exact spot, the turrets do return to zero.
