So, I'm gettin' to the age where I need arm extenders. USO just made it so I don't when shooting the bolt gun.

EREK knob, done with big numbers. Not hard to keep track of where you are if you go over one turn, so no need for two sets anyway (gee wouldn't a 10 Mil per rev be nice John III nod nod hint hint wink wink

The two turn and single turn markings for comparison. Got 4 of 'em from USO and converted all scopes over to them.

Thanks USO!

Re: Why I buy USO

Lol... When I first saw the picture I thought that is a new EREK they came up with, kinda like the MST-100 elevation knob, where you have a lower ring to adjust and also an upper one.

Re: Why I buy USO

USO flat out rocks, Dont want to hijack but I couldnt be happier.

Any decent company can put out a good product. It takes a great company to allow the amount of custimization they do and warrenty it all.
 
Re: Why I buy USO

That's really good idea 9H!!! I know exactly how you feel.It pisses me off I can't hardly see the standard sized numbers anymore.

+1 to the 10 mils per rev !

USO should start making those "OMK","old man knobs" for all the other scope manufacturers too.
 
Re: Why I buy USO

Yea the more I stare at that pic the more I think you could do a MIL click scope with the knob double marked for both MIL and MOA. Even though the clicks would not line up perfectly for the MOA portion of the knob, at least you can visually see where you are and will be within less than 1/4 MOA of being dead nuts on...
 
Re: Why I buy USO

My SN3 T-PAL is being built with the 110 click Milestone EREK in 1/10 Mil that is going to give me 11 Mils per rev. Can't wait. Glad I found out about that option.

Though wouldn't a nice even number like 10 Mils per rev. be better?
 
Re: Why I buy USO

nice to know that when my eyes start to fail i can just upgrade to the LARGE PRINT VERSION.that was a great idea on someones part. and the best part MADE IN THE USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Why I buy USO

What happens when you cant see those numbers anymore, an Audio verison in your fav female accent. Just imagine ButterCup telling you how many clicks you have turned

Just kiddin, but seriously I love how USO continues to step up and allow shooters to continually adapt their product to the situation at hand.

The quality of their product and things like this, will keep me a customer of their products for quite a while.

I'd like to see how that works and what it costs. It seems that evertime I order a scope from USO new stuff comes out that I would have liked and the next one costs even MORE.

I was thinking the same, Leo.
JBW announced it in this thread:

I was wrong on price. $85.00 on a new build, $130.00 to fit an existing scope.
