Rifle Scopes Nightforce screw in the center of turret screw under turret cap. What's it for?

[triplecelectric]

What is the screw inside the center of the elevation screw under the elevation turret for and or do? This is regarding a Nightforce NSX 5.5-22 HS ZS Model.

That screw moves the erector up and down. If you loosen the zero stop screws you can use a flat head screwdriver to make adjustments without the knob in place.

Here are the ZS instructions from my website that describe more about the screw:

There was this "phwooooshing" sound...

Which I later realized was the sound of failure....

In that case I don't know and I would say it's a component of the elevation subassembly that you don't want to mess with.

Actually I think I figured it out and it affects the force needed to adjust the turrets.

Very old thread but I have the same question what is the screw in the center under the elevation turret on a SHV4 to 14 x 50 F1

It’s what you open up to apply the red loktite to the erector assembly.
