I've been looking at these two scopes. I personally like the capped turrets, but don't see it as a deal breaker either way. I did a comparison on your website between the two scopes, and they appear to be almost identical... Same illumination, same reticle, weight/specs, until I got to the max elevation/windage adjustments.
The HS shows 90moa of elevation and windage, while the PST shows 220moa.
Is this actually correct? Why such a difference from what appears to be pretty much the same scope with different turrets? Is it just the way the turret sits on the adjustment tube, or are there more differences between the two?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, those numbers are correct. The different turrets are what changes things. For the HS to have the same amount of adjustment the turrets would have to be physically taller and we wanted to keep them as low profile as possible.
90MOA should be plenty for that scope though, and in actuality they do have a little more than 90MOA, but we understate the numbers a little. I just checked one of the HS samples we have on our show floor and it has over 110MOA windage and elevation.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!
