I hope this is the right place to post this. I just bought a brand new Bushnell Banner scope, put it on my Ruger American 308. While setting it I noticed the up wasn't there it was an R, the other one on the side also had R like it's supposed to. Seemed Bushnell put the wrong one there. The scope is set and has held zero, has anyone else seen this happen? I contacted Bushnell this morning, they said both adjustment dials are the same size and the scope will be just fine. They said it is still sealed with argon gas and still water and fogproof. Anyone else seen this happen? thanks

Sounds like one slipped through quality control. Agree that it will not make a difference in functionality, but still, it’s a factory second. Says a lot that Bushnell will not warranty it. Unless it was indeed sold as a second. Hope you didnt pay full price for it.

Don't have a Bushnell with that incorrect marking, but I do have a CenterPoint that does. They put the U/D marker on the windage knob. Called company, but they didn't have the correct marker to send me at the time. I should call again.

Yep, full price. It was $85 after tax and shipping.

That’s a left handed scope. Roll it 90 degrees counterclock wise, and that knob will be correct.

I thought of that too, but it would still not have the correct knob designation label. LOL.

Kinda like making an upside-down cake. You turn it over, but it would then be upside down.
