My windage and elevation adjustment screws don’t have a direction on them to turn for up/down left/right. Does yours? If so tell me which way to turn them for which adjustment.

Odd.

I checked the online manual, and it even references directional arrows. In the section on sighting in, it states:

quote:
Make corrections as necessary using the adjustment knobs that have bullet-strike directional arrows.


Sounds like Burris has been cutting corners. (Not surprising, coming from them.)

Left and UP are both counter clockwise.

Must be a factory defect because they are clearly marked on my 332. Maybe send it back or just remember the direction of turn.

Or, it could be Chicom fake? Wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Considering the real 332s are also made in China, that's a distinct possibility.

Chinese factories love ripping off products, especially other Chinese-made products.

I think we found the answer. Try sending it back to whomever you bought it from for a refund.

Good luck,

Jim

Ok to be sure, is elevation on top or the side. I made out an “R” on the top adjustment screw, but no arrow. On my Leupolds, the top is elevation adjustment.

Elevation is on top, windage on right side.

That’s what I always thought. What a cluster. I’m taking it back to academy. It’s been sitting g in my closet for about 6 months. Hope I can find receipt.
