Turrets: Hunting

Functions (Abbreviations)

DT (Double-Turn)
MT (Multi-Turn)
ST (Single-Turn)
cw (clockwise)
ccw (counter clockwise)

0.1 mrad = 1 cm / 100 m

BDC = Bullet Drop Compensation (BDC)
The BDC enables quick adjustment of the reticle position to “stay on target” at various distances. With clearly visible markings and numbers, the reticle can be easily adjusted with a single movement to ensure accuracy even at long range.

CT = (Capped Turret)
CT features the possibility to install a cap on top of the turret via a thread in order to avoid accidental adjustments.

LT = (Locking Turret)
BDC II and BDC II-B models feature a Mode Lever that locks or unlocks the turret. When the lever points toward the muzzle, the turret is locked. Rotating the lever toward the magnification ring unlocks the turret.

SZC = Sub-Zero Clicks
Sub-Zero Clicks are clicks below the engraved “0.” They allow quick compensation for air pressure changes or for the use of suppressors/night-vision devices – without needing to re-zero the turret.
