No4T glass

[HeavyT]

Hey guys, looking for some guidance. Last year I was lucky enough to acquire a HH No4T all numbers matching, etc...holy grail as they say. Thing is the scope doesn't seem to adjust. Now I understand that is not entirely uncommon, but I'm not sure where to go from here. What are the options to get glass back on this old girl?

Thanks, Tom

do a search for a board member, wheaty.

He will either do it for you or let you know where to get it done. He does excellent work and is very familiar with these scopes.

Thanks bearhunter

Wheaty rebuilt mine. Good job and not expensive.

That's great to hear! Eying to find him, my search function is not working for some reason.

Wheaty is Canadian and unlike Peter Laidler in the UK, does not charge an arm and a leg.

Send "wheaty" a pm here, that should work.

Whatever you do, don't use a hair dryer, and don't attempt to force the turret to rotate.

As a side note, if you have a no32 scope, it should be regularily excersised by running the windage and elevation turrets thru their complete travels.

This is especially true for the no32mk2/1 and no32mk3 scopes

Thanks guys for the tips. Wheaty got a old of me so I'll be getting his help.

A warning. the scope internals were greased. The grease has dried out. Adjusting the scope can BREAK things internally unless the scope is overhauled

I finally got my act together and got this scope to wheaty for overhaul. He turned it around quickly and as he promised. I am just thrilled with it. Had the rifle at the range today and it far exceeded my expectations. I will not be surprised if i can get this shooting moa. It's almost there and I'm out of practice. Thanks again to all for getting me in touch with wheaty and many thanks to wheaty.
