Mossy-dog Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Needing some flip up lens covers for a 50mm Nightforce NXS. Currently using the rubber covers zip ties in place but the Pard collar doesn’t fit the back one so just going to go with a front one. Butler creeks or similar - what size do I need? And are there any other options? Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mossy-dog Posted December 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 It’s ok, nothing like as good as it is on my .22 with a hawke vantage but with experience it is usable. I have used it on a 5.5-22 and a 3.5-15 and the lower mag is definitely better. essentailly I would sum it up as that I would not buy a Nightforce for using with the Pard but as I have it already and like it in all the other situations I get by with it just fine.
