I removed the o-ring from the elevation turret and just cleaned the grease from the windage turret. The sample I tested has the upgraded turret system. ares btr gen2 hd When you want to get the best features from the top-tier rifle scopes but not break the bank, look no further than the new Ares BTR GEN2 First Focal Plane rifle scope. While I like the option for a hold over, I really prefer a solid and repeatable turret system. I just bought the Ares Btr and noticed right away the mush in the turrets.

When Athlon first released the Ares BTR, there were some complaints by a few that the turrets were mushy and didn’t really have a good audible detent or click. Much better with O-ring removed. - Ares BTR 4.5-27x50 - Gen2 Türme - Erste Bildebene - 30mm Mittelrohr - 0.1Mil (1 Zentimeter-Klicks) I left it in the windage turret because it made it much harder to rotate, reminds me of Burris XTR turrets. Features: HD Glass, FFP, Advanced Fully Multi-coated, True Zero Stop, Illuminated Reticle, 30mm Tube, 10MIL/25MOA Travel-Per-Rotation Turrets. It is night and day difference.
