personally i dont favor one or the other, the knobs on the SB are big and clearly marked, i hardly dial (i run H59 reticals) but the odd occasion that i do, there is no need to pull my head away from the stock and a quick glance is all it takes, for what its worth i have CW and CCW SB scopes and due to the large knobs are markings its not something i get confused and dial the wrong way. IMO its all personal preference thing. get what ever seems correct to you
