Recommend me a manufacturer for a Scope Custom Turret Wrap.

Hi Guys,

Can someone please recommend me a company etc. who make custom turret wraps
or a company that makes custom scope turret rings.

Many thanks
Glendine.

Custom Turret Systems or Kenton Ind. Then there is the DIY, white tape and a pen.

Jeremy,

Many thanks for your help.

3m masking tape and a pen.

Make your own. Try different tape and labels, they stick different depending on the scope you have.

Had them for many years, looks good and is DURABLE. You see closeups of the labels here

Rather than having special turret wraps have you considered making your own data cards? The turret wrap will only be specific to 1 density altitude (a specific elevation and atmospheric conditions). Say you primarily hunt in the mountains so you have a turret wrap for that situation. If you decided to hunt in the midwest you'd have to get a second turret wrap. I use the standard mil dial on my scopes and print out data cards that relate distance to mils. PM me and I can send you a how to build data cards doc that I made for a couple friends.

Yes and no.
There's nothing wrong in what you are saying, but a BDC wrap does not change the mechanics of the scope or the required input from the shooter.

With a properly set up BDC you can skip the rangecard/ballistic solution step in a very high % of your shots. Mine historical meteorologocal data from an open datasource, limit it to your hunting season and it will be the exception that weather changes exceed the max/minumum tolerance values of your BDC. That's for one geographical location.

With several locations OR a very wide season, you simply decide what constitutes a "significant change" for your BDC and do the ballistics just as you would with a MIL chart.

The difference being that with the BDC solution you can skip the ballistic chart most of the time, whereas with the MIL solution you have an extra step every time. So he does not handicap himself with a BDC, he just needs to understand how to make full use of it.

The math and mechanics behind both solutions are the same, it's only the time that is different.

Here's a demonstration.

It does depend on distance. To 300-400 yards not going to matter. I also have a pair of Sig Range Finding Binos that outputs range in yards and mil. My data cards on the rifle are a backup to the binos. The mechanics of the scope are the same either way, it's just how you choose to input the elevation correction.

 

[THLR]

No it does not depend on the distance IF he learns to make full use of the BDC system.
I believe we are talking past each other. We both agree that it's just how he choose to input the elevation correctly.
