Does anyone know of anyone in the Uk stocking these?

Or similar for a Leupold VXIII Scope? (Bottle cap)

I don't think they are a stock item I think they are custom to your load ?

Only the bottom ones are for the cds scope turrets. They do standards. Been speaking to them.

Do they need to be Kenton, there is a chap in the UK who does similar.

[M99]

No - they don't - I have a VXIII with bottle top type adjustments - I want to convert them to target type turrets - UK would be much easier!!
Other option is back to Leupold in Germany via GMK - how long?!

I am sure someone down Bisley way was building similar, John Knight maybe? Hopefully one of the Bisleyites will be along in a minute to tell us.

If not - something for the shed?

I have thought about them in the past however turret thimbles invariably fit on splined shafts so the inner of the thimble would need to be machined to suit which is not something I am 'geared' up for.

How about getting blank turrets from the manufactures Dave?

Good point, certainly people like S&B supply the blanks, it has to be worth a try and the actual engraving of the divisions is easy enough to do.

I will do some investigating.
