install target turret(s) on Conquest with Z-800 reticle?

I am giving strong consideration to having Zeiss install target turret(s) on my Conquest 4.5-14x44 with the Z-800 ballistic reticle. I like the hold-over system for hunting applications, but prefer dialing for range and match work.

Have any of you had this done? If so, how about some feedback. Second, I am torn whether to do both elevation and windage or just the elevation. The Z-800 has windage holds for up to 10 mph and I typically hold for wind, since it is never constant anyhow. Because I am on the fence about it, a convincing argument for either option would be great.
 
I had target turrents installed and well worth the price(150.00) if my memory is correct. Have two Z-1000 scopes and love not having to click so much. All my crosshairs are dead on until 700 yd. Have to go down 12 clicks at 1000 yd. on creedmoor. Hope this helps.

Certainly helps. Did you have both turrets done or just elevation? Do the turrets track well? The person I talked to at Zeiss was uncertain if the turrets had zero stop. Do yours have zero stop?
