Hey folks - for those who are wondering why/how this zero stop “Limits available travel” - allow us to further explain. It’s probably a better way to word it by saying it limits you to nearly 2 full revolutions **From your zero**. In the MOA model, having 25 MOA per revolution, that means you get the 47 MOA mentioned here to dial **From zero**. Likewise with the MRAD model, you get the approx 18 Mils of adjustment **From zero**. Don’t confuse this with limiting the overall adjustment - thinking that way would lead one to believe you only get about 23 MOA or 9 Mils on either side of your zero which is NOT the case. With nearly 2 full revolutions from zero, it is certainly possible and quite likely that you may not even realize the end of the zero stop’s available travel before actually bottoming out in the scope’s tube. Here is a link to a new video we released that explains this very thing - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKTJn3qugb2sfbs

I have 5 Vortex Razor optics and one Viper, love them all. Really like the synthetic tool for adjusting the settings that come with Vortex scopes. No chance of marring the screws of the turrets like you often see with competitors scopes. Can't beat the price, value, and quality of Vortex optics!

[@RootDir_ls]

Thanks for the video on this guys. Just got done installing the revstop. Love this scope more then the viper PST gen II.

[@krzyryry8382]

Great video I think the strike eagle is going to be my next purchase so this came in at the right time!!!

[@erich9111]

So I install this when I'm zeroed and ready to slip the turrets. With the ring in place it limits the travel to 5 clicks down and almost two revolutions up. Unless you are doing ELR shooting this is exactly the range of adjustment you will need access to, and too much adjustment is just more chances to be a rev off. Seems like a great idea.

[@coltcomphbar]

Great scope

[@tjfrench03]

Rev stop ring taking up adjustment is a downer.

[@ceganc2678]

If you really need all that adjustment you're probably a good enough shooter to just go without it.

[@apisdude]

what are your your thoughts using this scope on a 6CM for 1000 yard target shooting?

[@jonnyg6892]

I just bought this scope tonight! It's a beautiful scope! Only thing I'm confused about, is what is the point of adding the zero stop ring? It sounds like once I zero the rifle in, and then I install the zero stop ring, it will then cause inaccuracies with my shots as it is no longer zeroed in?? I am not sure I am fully understanding the point of adding that ring in if i can simply remove the turret dial and install it back at the 0 marker. What am I missing here guys?! Thanks!

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

Hey Jonny - the zero stop ring prevent you from dialing down past your zero. This is extremely beneficial if you are dialing out for long range shooting. Installing the ring will not cause any inaccuracies with your shots.

[@pasjooter1039]

Will this also work on the Diamondback tactical 6-24x50 FFP, or will you have simililar system for this scope ? If yes which PN do I need to order?

[@thewatcher9778]

what height rings are being used in this vid

[@BallisticFix]

I’m new to long range shooting. I have a Ruger american Predator 6.5 CM and recently bought a 20 MOA rail and am planning to buy a Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 MOA. I guess I’m confused how to zero your rifle with the extra cant of the 20 MOA rail to get the extra elevation in your turret? I plan to run the zero stop in the optic so will that change the results?

[@jaxbeach09]

You zero it like you would any other rifle

[@shaunharrison9618]

I want to purchase this for my Remington 700 magpul hunter chambered in 6.5 creedmor. What do you recommend for a picatiny rail, 0 or 20 MOA? What hight rings? I see you have 3 heights of 34mm rings.

[@jimjohnson3905]

I have same gun in 300 win mag with 20 moa picitiny rail looking for scope ring height

[@shaunharrison9618]

@@jimjohnson3905 i put 1.25" one piece rings from F3R machine. Just mounted with vortex strike eagle gen 2 FFP 5-25x56. Haven't shot it yet but everything mounted up perfectly. Mounted on a Remington 700 magpul hunter in 6.5 creedmoor. I ended up using a 20 moa rail as well.

[@armanc3089]

will this work with a 20 MOA rail on a Bergara HMR PRO?

[@benwallace4581]

I have the Strike eagle on my Bergara B14 HMR with a 20 moa rai. It works great.

[@Vaskakutuxovi]

Hi saddly i rotated roll how i can fix it?

[@HumbertoClaudino]

Using the zero stop ring this decreases the lifting capacity?

[@Desertpunk1986]

Yes it unfortunately does. The best option is an adjustable plate for the scope mounts.

[@Zulu-charlie99]

I have a viper pst, sparc 2 and a 1-6 strike eagle. Tell me where I can buy this in Canada and I'll buy it today. Suppliers in Canada telling me it will be 6 months or more before they see it.

[@Andyontherange]

if suppliers in Canada are telling you it will be 6 months what makes you think a youtube channel will tell you where to buy it in Canada?

[@fitztech]

Select shooting supplies got them in

[@SourPatchPuss]

Im confused why he says be mindful the text on the revstop ring reads left to right, why is that an issue or something that needs be pointed out?

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

So you don’t put it on backwards or upside down.

[@thewatcher9778]

Is there a way I can set the stop so I dont go past and have to come back 5 clicks?

[@Lolisod12]

If you drop the cap on at +5 instead of 0 and spin back it will go 5 past and end up at 0.

[@thewatcher9778]

@@Lolisod12 thank you I was thinking that would be something I'd have to do

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

Simply dropping the cap on +5 of your zero actually won’t do it - you’ll still end up 5 clicks below your zero when you dial back, the dial will just physically say “0” instead of “-5”. You’ll actually want o physically zero the optic 5 clicks high of your zero and THEN index the turret so it’s on the “+5” position. That way when you dial back and it stops right on “0”, that is actually your proper zero.

[@MostlyPeacefulCombatVet]

Hahahaha! Awesome job! Beautiful setup. Feel free to send 2 or 20 or so my way #vortexnation4life

[@drigocuz8]

That was a believable robot

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

Thanks - took tons of time to get his programing just right.

[@NorthWestGuns]

Why is it such a big loss of adjustment with using the zero stop?

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

It's actually not that much - we'll have a video coming out to explain this better soon, but a lot of people think the overall adjustment is limited from 31 MRAD to 18 MRAD or 110 MOA to 47 MOA. That's actually not the case. If you consider the fact that it's likely you'll be zeroed somewhere near the middle of the scope's travel, that would leave you with either 15.5 Mils or 55 MOA left to actually dial for elevation. It's from that point that you're then "Limited" to 18 Mils or 47 MOA. In the MRAD model, since .1 Mil is a more coarse adjustment than 1/4 MOA, you don't even run into the limitations of the zero stop before bottoming the scope out (And mind you - even if you did - 18 Mils is A TON of adjustment). In the MOA model - you would run into the zero stop before the end of the tube assuming you're zeroed dead in the middle of the scope, but again, 47 MOA is still a lot of available adjustment.

[@Asghaad]

@@VortexOpticsUSA question : how does that work when the scope is NOT zeroed in the center - while using canted rails ? if you have 20 MOA base meaning your zero is somewhere 20 MOA lower than the center of the scope will the 47MOA limit apply regardless or will it extend because the original zero is now below the center of the scope adjustment ?

[@ye588]

just want to ask what mounting ring has used in the video 😂

[@Dustysa4]

Total elevation with the zero stop installed is reduced down to 47 MOA, or 18 MRAD. That's down from 110 MOA, or 31 MRAD without the zero stop. That's not great.

[@Steve-dx5jq]

I agree it's the reason for buying it 110 MOA now I only get 47 MOA what were they thinking ?

[@Lolisod12]

Why do you get a larger percentage of the range in MRAD than MOA? 18 is nearly 2/3 and 47 is well under half?

[@Dustysa4]

@@Lolisod12 Not sure what's going on there. These are just the numbers from the owners manual found on their website.

[@Lolisod12]

Heard back from vortex, the zero stop limits the number of turns on the turret. Because 0.1 MRAD is larger than 0.25 MOA they have a different range with the same number of turns.

[@A60363]

@@Lolisod12 Due to the design of the ring and the way the pins on the body and cap engage the ring, you're limited to ~95% of two rotations. The MRAD version is 10 MRAD/turn, while the MOA version is 25 MOA/turn.

[@Bryant1939]

Theoretically... what would happen if one turned the turret accidentally as you are taking said cap off? Purely theoretical... hint hint.

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

The easiest way would be to simply check it by shooting it and re-zero as necessary. Realistically, you should be pretty darn close.

[@LooxJJ]

and you lose 13 mils of elevation?

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

Here's how it works out - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKTJn3qugb2sfbs

[@roostersofer5759]

Don't understand anything you talked about. If you zero your rifle , why mess with the scope. O stop seems like a factory built in mistake. I have the scope but will never use your built in mistake. Usr hold over. If you don't know how much , then dont shoot.

[@VortexOpticsUSA]

Dialing in your adjustment will always be more accurate than holding over. You also will be able to dial in for those in between distances that don't perfectly line up with your stadia lines.

[@D70340]

If you couldn`t understand the simple easy video explanation, then you obviously are not into precision shooting. Maybe its YOU, that shouldn`t take the shot.
