Yep, but the weird thing is USO doesn't advertise the MTC option on their web site. You have to "use the force" when ordering.
They can zero stop non-erek knobs (but its a one-time deal, non-adjustable by the shooter). I had them do an SN3 with #1 El turret half a turn under my zero and never got lost again!
MTC and left windage.....any other things I missed? </div></div>
Oh yeah - I forgot about the LH Windage option. Very cool for right-handed shooters who shoot mainly prone or bench and like to dial, as you can check your Windage setting without losing your cheekweld.

The Schmidt & Bender 3-12x50 civilian USMC scope I handled had the same MTC style knobs, heavy clicks on the full Mils. I believe it is the only model that has these by S&B. So who had them out first?

USO will prety much do anything you want. Much of it is not listed on the website. A call to doc76251 would be recomended before placing an order. </div></div>
Becky and Jeff know me well......
Wish I would have known the questions to ask......
Have they made yours yet, is it done, or just in the process? Not sure about a retrofit, I am sure it could be done.
They can even put the heavy detents at specific ranges i.e. a clunk at your 200 yard setting, a cluck at your 400 yard setting, etc. or pretty much what ever you want.
The "Milestone" knob is the knob that you are talking about. We have had it out for years on our SSDS scope version. It has the solid/heavier "clunk" at each 100yrd increment. We offer the same thing on the 17X scopes in 1/10MIL, heavier clunk at every full MIL. We have the same thing for 1/4MOA, but these are not completely machined yet as we have a few other hot projects that are soaking up machine time.
You will see all of this on the new web site in a short time.

The same reason why we engrave their patent number on our scopes.
