    Use a rubber hammer or a Gary C special ( shoe) and give it a tap to see if it loosens up the internals as they may be stuck. Wind the adjustment the opposite way so there is no tension and give it a tap.

    Paul Burke may be able to fix it but the cost may be the deciding factor.

    Have you tried removing the actual turret dial (not sure that's the correct word) to see if the shaft itself is turning, or will turn with a pair of pliers ?

    Thanks for the replies to date folks. After a further play with it as suggested, there's nothing further that I can do so I'll look at replacing it and list the scope for spares/repairs just on the off chance it's of some use to someone.
