QUALITY flip up scope caps

[mark40sw]

I got tired of the cheap caps from butler creek. Decided to get to get Aadland caps for my Nightforces & Razors. They are expensive but compared to the cost of the scopes, not so much.

Aadland always shows "not in stock" so you have to order & then takes several weeks to get them. They are well worth the price to me, i do not worry about them on my scopes. I believe they are lifetime warranted (check on that). They have a clamping screw that secures them to the scope very well.

I did recently try the Vortex Defenders. They are made much better than Butler Creeks. However, when using them recent in subzero weather, on a Razor they were fitted for, they tended to pull off the scope easily instead of flip open. They did do well through the warm weather though. I recently replaced them with Aadland because of this.


Here is a pict from someone else demonstrating how well Aadland caps are.

^^^^^^ What he said lifetime warranty great product and tough as nails. Money well spent.

I’m giving the Vortex Defenders a go. I’ll post back when I get my hands on them.

As promised.

I finally got the Vortex covers. I’ll have to go play in the snow and see how they do.

They’re getting a thumbs up from me.

I used the $20-$30 vortex caps on everything, including $100 scopes for .22. The best.

Butler Creek flip up caps work just fine.
