They must have got rid of the spot to enter a discount code cause I don't see it

Thanks for the heads up. I gave one to a buddy 2 weekends ago for that 350 Legend...got a replacement.

I ordered a set of these. The ocular cap was way too small (I ended up cracking the plastic by forcing it on).

Ocular size I received was 1.575”. MKM said SWFA provided the measurements.

MKM was great and mailed me out a larger ocular cap (1.673” but it was just slightly too large). I had to tape the ocular end in order to get it to fit tight enough to not spin or fall off.

Anyone get a set and have this issue?

Had the exact same issue but my measurement after breaking the small on measured 1.629 on the ocular, and I contacted so she sent me a 1.634 for replacement and it’s perfect.
Just ordered a second set and just put it in the notes so hoping I receive the 1.634”

Depending on how I measure, I get between 1.625” and 1.635”.

I’ve asked for 1.634” replacement.

22lr's and 223s get cranked a lot. Have maxed out the elevation more than a handful of times just seeing what can be done.

Getting lost in turret land is a real thing.

Come to think of it. I got lost in turret land with a 300RUM an a 12x as well!

Haven't tried it with mine, but nylon washers might work for zero stop. I use them on four 6X SWFAs. Personally don't turn these far enough to matter.

Hey, mine looks just like that . I did have the same issue. MK machining seems to be on the ball with customer service.

You could try sending the $27 for the shim kit with your information to the same email through PayPal. That's what the email he sent said to do. Include scope info, including Mil/MOA, and address. I got the shims a handful of days later.

Another data point for a smooth transaction with Tim. I just purchased a couple sets on fleabay and put in the notes I needed them for 3-9. He got back to me to confirm what he was sending and it was easy as pie.

His eBay listing says "We support only the fixed power models and the 3-15." Has that changed? Where did you add a note?

I just followed the steps to purchase the item and on the purchase page there is an option to add a note to seller.

Yeah I came here to say this. Was looking to grab a 10x for a 22 and there is no discount code box anymore

He contacted me and said regardless of the eBay description, just add a note that you need a 3x9 Mill Quad when you buy. He said he had a few sets left. On the way now.

Yes, much better grip. Still stiff but much more usable compared to relying on just the scallops for traction.

To put it another way: without the band, I had to be cognoscente of how I had my grip on the zoom ring to move it. With my two scopes, it required a c-grip, and was pretty clumsy to actuate. However with the band, I can use two fingers without giving the action much attention.

I should note, I used the smallest ranger band. Only about an inch across when not stretched. I rolled them over the eye piece with a good deal of effort then straightened them out, but they are not going anywhere now that they’re in place.

I haven’t given a throw lever a second thought since installing them.

Tried some ranger bands. This is 100% the ticket. It changed how much I like my 3-9's.

Thanks!
