Rifle Scopes Tactile Turrets.

I have a question maybe you guys can shed some light on.

Anyone ever bought scope in the 2k price range and had one turret maybe be slightly quieter and or have a little softer clicks than the other? Anyone ever experienced that?

Talking elevation vs windage or two identical scopes, elevation feels different?

Elevation and windage on the same scope. Elevation is very slightly different.

What scope is it?

What scope is it?

Vortex Razor HD Gen 2. Its brand new. Just mounted it last week. I'm not complaining. The scope is awesome. I'm just curious.

In the 2k range?....probably every one of them I used....you did use the word 'slightly'.

Yup. I'm not complaining. I was just curious if anyone else has experienced it.

Yes I have noticed a difference in how they move.

Different mechanics on both. Similar, yet different travel adjustments pushing, twisting, turning, binding in different ways.

Have seen it in most every optic of any price. Not necessarily in a negative way. But some elevation don’t feel the exact same as windage.

To be honest...my new ZCO 5-27 is the first scope I've ever used/owned that feels the same and sounds the same on both turrets.

That's because everyone else compromised.

The new ones yes. The original release you could feel a slight difference.

On my US Optics FDN17, the windage turret doesn't quite feel as distinct as the elevation.

But it gets a little better every time I use it. Sometimes on a new scope it takes a little use to get things broke-in. In the case of my FDN17, the o-ring in the windage turret is pretty tight, but breaking-in nicely.
