hehehe I use a combination of different methods, a kind of "fail safe" approch, though i was done hard by the "lock screws", i was under the impression they "LOCK" not Culminate!
i went around the circle nipping up slowly only to find it pushed my culmination out by donkeys years.
so i culminated it to a rough state, nipped everything up then culminated against the lock screws. My culmination rarely moves and i travel alot with the scope. sometimes i have to give the rear screws a 1/5th of a turn to line it back up and i rather use a combination of two screws to "loosen" the locking screws rather than tighten one to bring it back.
This method can be used also for cruddy springs as the locking screws are pushing and the culminating screws are pulling the springs play little effect at the end.
I found out this also due to i was culminating a lady's scope for her on a DSO night in Chittering and i had all sorts of problems and yes the springs where the culprit because they would go one way then go back, and i hadn't changed the direction i was screwing the screws in :S once i figured this out it took me all of a few minutes to get culmination sorted.
