The riflescopes in the PM II product line are offered with various versions of elevation and windage adjustment turrets. There are many types of adjustment configurations available. Our most popular adjustments are offered in the catalogue; others are available, via special order, on our website. We offer several options to include Single Turn or Double Turn, lockable or non-lockable, with either tactile or visible rotational indicators, more tactile clicks and with Zero Click and Sub-Zero Click functions. Distinctions are further made in terms of the units of measure for the adjustments; we offer centimeter/milliradian or MOA values. The turret’s direction of rotation can be counterclockwise, or clockwise. Special order configurations can incorporate extended lead times.
