Ttfjlc Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Evening folks, was wondering if anybody had come across this problem before, midweek I was plinking in the garden with my Prosport but my groups were to the left with both jsbs and falcon pellets, however when adjusting the horizontal turrent nothing changed group wise. The scope is a Hawk Map pro 4-16x50 AO, I have been researching via Google which threw up some interesting ideas, one was to give the scope a tap in front of the turrets to 'free' it up, never heard of that one before. Any ideas? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 What i do to avoid a sticky turret .is Say i want to move 4 clicks left .i will dial 10 left and then 6 right .This means that the adjusters definatly move and breaks them out of any sticky points.

old man Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 You could carefully crank it fully left and right a few times, carefully being the operative word? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longstrider Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Having already made an adjustment, try just tapping the scope. This may make the adjustment 'jump into place' from where it's stuck (IF it is stuck). I've had this happen with older cheap scopes but never with a Hawke ... Other than that .. the above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
