Hi All
I have just hunted in NZ with a guy that has a dial up leopuld and i want to convert mine to this does anyone know where i can buy target turrets for my leopuld VXL scope?

Leupold's Custom Shop sells turrets. I think they will even set them up for your trajectory.

Of late, they have become itchy about shipping gear outside the US, though. I don't know if that includes "Down Under"? If they want to, they can apply for a Dept. of Commerce export license, though.

There used to be another company offering customized turrets, but I forget the name (Premier Reticles?). If you search here you'll find it, or try over on http://www.longrangehunting.com/ - those guys are into scope dialing in a big way...

Thanks Mike I will take a look at there web site and see how i get on.I have tried asking the leopuld dealer her in Aussie but it seem all to hard for them!

I posted a Leupold scope to the USA from Australia late last year for a service, fitting of a different reticle and click adjustment turrets. I had no problems. All corro and payment was via e-mail. 2.5 week from send to receipt back here in Oz.

Post it direct to their service dept as per their web sight with your full personal contact details and what you want done.

code4 Thats fantastic I will do it that way if you think its that quick. Any idea of costs and what sort of turret did you get put on your scope?

Here is a brief write up from AHN forum last year:

Just got back my Leupold Vari-IIc 1-4x20 shotgun scope from Leupold service centre. This scope had friction adjustment turrets, thick plex reticle and set to be parralax (Spelling?) free at 75 yards.

I posted the scope over about three weeks ago requesting:

1) A service
2) New #4 reticle
3) 1/4" click @ 100 yards adjustment turrets .
4) Leave parrallax at 75 yards

It was returned today at a total cost of A$198.00.

There is no doubt about Leupold service or the value of the work they do. All corro was easily done by email. I purchased the scope second hand from the USA on egay and total cost has been less than A$400.00. A lot cheaper than a new 1.5-5.

Edit: I took this scope to Africa last June on my 9.3x62 and it performed faultlessly.

Ah, somebody (on another thread) just reminded me of the alternative supplier of customized target turrets:

Do make sure you contact Leupold about export/shipping issues before you send the scope to them. Here is a contact at Leupold who can likely provide insight on these matters: ddougan@Leupold.com (Diane Dougan).
