Does anyone know where I could find target turet caps for my bushnell "Jason" 3-9x42x rifle scope. It came with the standard "hunting" style screw on dust caps, and I would like to install target knobs. Any help would be great. Thanks Jason.

The Stoney Point Target Knobs are well made and easy to install. For a Vari-X II users, they screw on in place of the factory dust caps with a knurled knob that connects to a short spindle and engages the slot in the factory adjuster. Once installed, the knurled knob is aligned with an index mark on the collar that had been screwed on to the scope. When done shooting, or when you want to change the knobs to another scope, just reverse the procedure and install them on the next scope selection. They don't slip, they are precise in adjustment, and the fit and finish will blend in with any quality rifle. If you are a Vari-X III owner, installation isn't much different, you just begin with a quick step of removing a flat spacer from the assembly. The caps cost about $50 for the pair, which is inexpensive compared to having target adjusters more permanently installed, and since they haven't been more permanently installed, they can easily be swapped around on other Leupold scopes.
