mam's 'lil soldier Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Greetings fellow noise makers. My Butler Creek scope caps have served me well, but are now a little wobbly and feeling a bit flimsy these days. Any ideas who makes good alternatives? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hancock Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Vortex. Fed up with the brittle plastic of "new" Butler Creeks. Or Swaro's if you are flush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 March scopes do nice flip-ups. They have the advantage of being able to lock down flat and flush with scope tube, so are out of the way when shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mam's 'lil soldier Posted February 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 As someone said on the previous thread on this topic, there's got to be a killing for someone who makes a decent range at the right price. In fact, given the cost of some higher end scopes, I recon it's a disgrace that they don't come with better caps from the factory. I'll get my money's worth from the Butler Creeks for as long as I can and use the time to fondle a few. As the old man once said, "it's the only way you'll ever know for sure son".
