MGZ40 Zeroing Procedure

So I'm trying to get my MGZ40 zeroed to mg MG42 on my Yugo lafette. I've managed to adjust the eccentric bolt in the scope base which has given me almost enough azimuth adjustment, it seems to be only a few mils off in azimuth when aiming at the corner of my neighbor's roof about 40 yards away. It's about 5 mils off for elevation where the 600m setting on the MGZ coincides with the 200m setting on the iron sights.

I see there are 3 small screws on the turrets; would I be able to loosen those and just move the drums to a correct zero position? I've been burned by German cars too much to want to even think about messing with this very expensive optic...
