Guys, i`m just going to throw this out there.
When you bottom out your elevation, will this allow you to still be in the center of the lenses internally so that you have a crisp clear focus? From what I've seen by bottoming out the elevation with the turrets, i lost quite a bit of clearness due to the centers of the lenses not being in perfect alignment with each other inside the scope. I started noticing that the scope had less light, and was not clear and focused. The only way i could alleviate my problem was to by different (20 30 40 50 MOA) picatinny rails, and buy a scope that had a lot more elevation internally. I would usually end up in a 34mm tubed scope that has much more travel internally so that my lenses stayed crystal clear.
EDIT:
Let me add, that cheap glass is just that, cheap glass. Better glass is cleaner to the edges where as cheap glass is not polished as good, nore do they use good "quality" glass in cheap scopes. If you want clarity, and brightness, that costs a lot more money. When i shop for a scope, i look at the edges of the glass inside the scope, first, then go from there. Turret travel is important for the application you intend to use it for. I could add a lot more here, but i think most of you get the picture. You get what you pay for. Educate yourself first before setting your money on the counter. By more scope than you need, you`ll dial up, then bring it back for the hit!
YMMV
