leupold vxlll adjustment

If you want your point of impact to raise, which way do you turn your turret, up or down?

 

[michiganmuzzy]

Turn turret UP. It will move your POI ‘UP’.(it is actually moving the crosshairs down)

Shouldn't the elevation turret have a directional arrow with up on it?

 

[derfhunter]

Yes it has up and down and i was trying to adjust it in the up position to raise point of impact and my shooting buddy said it was going the wrong way.

Don't listen to your buddy. You were doing it correctly.

Your bud probably read some where that turning the adjustment "up" makes the xhairs go down which is correct. Where he fell down is in understanding that when the xhairs go down the POI goes up.

If you want your point of impact to raise, which way do you turn your turret, up or down?

Try this trick, with your RIGHT hand make a fist and with your RIGHT hand next to the turret you want to adjust, point the thumb in the direction you want to move the POI and the fingers on the RIGHT hand will point in the direction to move/adjust the turret. Works for both elevation and windage, period.

Hope this helps. Also good info here.

My mentor told me this easy way of remembering which was to turn your scope. Works for almost all brands.
