Has anyone made zero stops for the midway BSA scope? I just mounted and shot this scope on my 22, and was thinking of using some teflon gaskets to do so, but was curious if anyone has done this as of yet.

I don't see why you couldn't. It looks like it would work. If I were keeping mine, I'd try it. But I didn't have very good luck with mine. It's on it's way back to Midway as of this morning. These 2 links will explain:

Looks like from reading it yours had a turrent issue?
So far I am pleased with mine, but have not done a box test. I do know I have a lot of windage and elevation play on all directions, but do need to test.
Zeroed the 22lr at 100 and took it to 200. Made mil correction and was on at 200. So i am happy thus far....

You just happened to get a lemon.
I've had 3 of them, for the money they are great scopes, not single problem whatsoever.
I have this same scope and yes you can make zero stops this way. I used two rubber washers that are used in a garden hose sprayer. Simply put them inside the turrets knob to take up space. Using rubber will give you a mushy zero stop but will get you real close so you dont get lost on the turrets. Kinda hard to explain but the rubber has give in it so when you get down close to where the zero is you will start to feel it getting harder to turn the turret because the rubber is starting to compress.
I am going to upgrade these to teflon washer and try and get it more exact with no mushy feeling. I will just sand them down until I get it close to exact that way their is no real pressure on the turret itself that the rubber causes and try getting more of a hard stop.
