    Things I liked:

    Great value..!

    Things I would have changed:

    Had a chip on the finish!

    What others should know:

    Too big for some left sided magazine guns.

  • Rating 5.05.0 5.0

    Rating 5.05.0 5.0

    Things I liked:

    Very convenient to use in any basic shooting position, i.e. using the offhand standing hold it is easy to adjust by sliding the forearm holding hand rearward slightly and adjust with the thumb (if right handed), or the fingers if left handed). Well made product.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Go slow when installing, ease it on; nice tight fit. Set screws not needed for my Leapers SPC3-U312A0IEW but a nice touch. I am not so concerned with the accuracy of the distance markings (but they are close) as I am about the virtual lack of parallax when the target is focused. I've bench checked the Parallax at the "target focused" settings and found those settings to be very close to correct. Not an Olympic shooter but I stress over "One Hole" groups and this item is very convenient for eliminating the parallax error at varying distances without having to reach up and grab the front of the scope or having to use the thumb and forefinger for the SWAT knob.

    Things I liked:

    This is the most convenient accessory I've ever purchased. Makes all the diffence in the world in for quick target acquisition. Don't have to change forehand grip on the rifle. Must have this for your side focus scope. Don't wait. It's the most useful option for the least amount of money you'll buy for you rifle and scope combo.

    Things I would have changed:

    nothing it works perfectly on both my Leapers scopes.

    What others should know:

    Must have deal.......

    Things I liked:

    It does what it is suppose to. Fits nice and tight on Leapers' scope.

    Things I would have changed:

    Include with swat scopes.

    What others should know:

    Markings are very close but they are off.

    Rating 3.03.0 3.0

    Things I liked:

    Nice size - I was able to 'relieve' the rim a bit and use on my (left side magazine loading) RWS/Hammerli 850.

    Things I would have changed:

    The markings on the rim don't seem to be in agreement with the real world.

    What others should know:

    I installed the wheel, and set it so that 10 yards on the wheel aligned with 10 yards measured. None of the other markings were accurate.

    Rating 4.04.0 4.0

    Things I liked:

    It makes focusing so much easier, especially with a palm up forehand hold - just rotate it with a finger or thumb while sighting in. Easy to install and easy to use.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing about the product, but the information on this item should point out that it works best on pneumatics and low recoil springers. High recoil springers should not use this product - I know because that is what I tried to use it on.

    What others should know:

    Do not use on a higher power springer. I have a fairly smooth shooting tuned Quest 800, and the additional mass of the wheel (even though it is light)caused the focus to "walk" off its setting in only 1 or 2 bench rest shots. The recoil was still too strong for the wheel and scope combo. I feared for the durability impact on the scope, and thus took it off. I'll save it to use on a future PCP.

    Things I liked:

    I cannot imagine having to dial in parallax adjustments without this! Large enough to add your own labels. Haven't tried the 80mm wheel, but this one is perfect on my TX200. Even using high mounts, it's large enough that my thumb can just reach it from shooting position without having to adjust my grip on the forearm.

    Things I would have changed:

    As others have said, I wish the outside edge had more texture to it. Against the pad of my thumb, there sometimes isn't quite enough friction to turn the wheel without adding more pressure than is really comfortable. I might end up scoring the outside edge of the scalloped rim with a file or hacksaw blade to rough it up a bit. Even so, this side wheel is attractive, highly functional, and durable.

    What others should know:

    On my Leapers 6-24x56, the side wheel obscures the little reference dot for the AO turret. Also, the zero for the AO turret and the zero for the side wheel are about 1/16" off. I think the rubber insert inside the side wheel (grips the turret knob) is rotated just slightly, but it's glued in place. I was able to fix the first problem and compensate for the second by putting a little scratch in the scope mount. Now I have - from shooting position – both a visible and accurate reference for the yardage indicators. This might be a little hard to visualize, so I added a "customer image" that you can check out.

    Things I liked:

    Everything about this side wheel is a must for serious shooters. It was designed to stay on the scope for ease of operation so leave it attached and with the thumb and pointing finger, you can adjust the wheel without changing your stance for quick target acquisition on any yardage. Looks intimidating when attached.

    Things I would have changed:

    It should come as a standard on scopes that need it. Sharp grooves/rubber inserts to ease the adjustment with gloves on. Maybe make it lighter is the only thing I can think of. It is already light so it may improve but not much.

    What others should know:

    Leave it attached on the gun to maximize the ergonomics, once you use it you wont go without it. The installation needs to be evenly done so take you time to achieve a perfect wheel revolution. Do not over tighten the screws. Memorize the settings and how many clicks you need to compensate and you will hit more targets period. I use to write mine down but I know it by heart now and it just got a lot more fun to shoot my TX200 MK3, I have it on both calibers and will not go without it.

    Things I liked:

    Makes adjusting paralax a dream. I can adjust it with my left hand without even having to take my hand off the fore arm or my eye off the target.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing.

    What others should know:

    I have a hard time loading the magazine in my BSA Superten with this wheel mounted.

    Things I liked:

    Craftsmanship is obvious. Made very well. Numbers easy to see. Simple install. And it just looks sooooo cool.

    Things I would have changed:

    None

    What others should know:

    Think of all those shots you missed cause you had to lift your head to make adjustment. No more. Looks like it weighs a ton, but it is very light. Really like it.
