[MrGreg]

Wait, they're available for ATACR now? Did I miss the post announcing this?

I received a pair to test fitment and functionality so I'm sure they'll be made available soon.

Hi guys, a quick update: Yes, we have been busily test fitting more caps. SWFA 1-6 caps are on the site for order: SWFA

NF ATACR and 2.5-10X42mm caps are up for pre-order as well: NightForce

Those all should be shipping in a couple weeks. We're very close on the Mk6 3-18X44, NF NXS 56mm, Vortex 44mm, Henny 56 & 72mm, so stay tuned for those.

We've shipped all backorders of Steiner 56mm and still have some in stock. We have a pile of S&B and Kahles caps that will ship out this weekend.

Thanks for the kind words everybody, I'm glad you all like them!

 

[SD26]

Got these a week or so ago.(Leupold 8.5-25)

I believe Jon might be making a few adjustment's.

These are pure craftsmanship.

Woohoo! Jon, take my money! Need!

 

[bdv1pro]

I have a Steiner 3-12x56. Will the 5-25x56 set work or is their a difference?

 

[strike33]

Steiner 4-16x50
OBJ:2.278"
Ocular:1.689"

these measurements should work for the 3-15x50 as well
i'll take a couple

I don't know. Can anybody measure a 3-12?

Steiner 4-16x50
OBJ:2.278"
Ocular:1.689"

Thanks.That ocular measurement looks different than the 5-25 so they might have different sizes on some of these.

 

[Jon A]

In other news, 3-18's are a go!

Flip Up Cap Set, Leupold Mark 6 3-18X44

Should start shipping in a couple weeks.

 

[bdv1pro]

Steiner 3-12x56
Obj = 2.507" or 63.7mm
Ocular = 1.677" or 42.6mm

 

[Jager66]

Hey Guys, I need a favour......to measure the EXACT inside diameter of the AADMOUNT front objective flip-up cap for the Vortex Viper PST 4-16 x 50.

I have ordered one set already, but I need that figure urgently !

Can someone help, please ?

Very much appreciated, thanks.

J66

Help, pleeeeeeease

[918v]

Jon
Hensoldt 4-16x56
2.442 Objective
1.611 at focus ring

1.616" at the ocular on mine.

BTW, would it be possible to make the ocular cover with an inner lip so it can snap over the ocular on the Henny? The ocular lip is .505" wide and would really benefit from an inner lip.

 

[mjh30]

Jon order in for the MK6.
918v how far in did you measure the ocular?

 

[918v]

I just measured the fat serrated part. The distance from the edge of the ocular to the scope when the ocular is adjusted to factory spec is .700"

The barrel of the ocular measures 1.508" in diameter so the inner lip would have to me something similar.

 

[Eastbay]

I'd like/need a set for the NightForce ATACR.

Jon,

Do the NF 2.5-10x42 and NF 2.5-10x32 have the same size ocular.
I'd like to purchase the ocular for the NF 2.5-10x32 unless you plan on making a set for it.

Also, any chance you'll make something for the Aimpoint T1 Micro?

Just posted a review for the ATACR in the optics section.

[EMdoc12]

I'd love a set for my NF 2.5-10x32 as well.

 

[scatterbrains]

Jon sent me a set to proof today for the vortex 4-16x44 HS scope. They fit perfectly and are wel well made. they fit tight and will never spin or fall off the lids pop with authority and sit flat to the bells. Included are little foam pads to get rid of the click from the lids hitting themselves. A molded/machined in bump stops the lids from bouncing off the scope itself.

They are very well made and will def have them on all my scopes in the future.

Thank you Jon for a well needed updated and seriously robust scope cap.

Here are some pics of whats included and on the rifle

Apologies for the rushed pictures.

 

[.454Casull]

Is it possible to make a set for the Hensoldt 3.5-26x56? After measuring the Objective is the same as the 4-16x56.
Objective: 2.442
Ocular: 1.955

The ocular measurement is the ring, this is the widest part, rest of the ocular body is thinner.

Thanks,
Ed

 

[judgedelta]

Will the covers for the Mk6 3-18 X 44 work for a VX6 3-18 X 44? If you don't have the measurements, I can measure and send. Thanks...

Thanks! It looks good. I've made these available for pre-order: Flip Up Cap Set, Vortex PST, HST 44mm Those should also fit the 2.5-10X44.

We also finally have the 56mm NXS caps ready for preorder: Flip Up Cap Set, NightForce NXS, 56mm

In other news, all ATACR and 42mm NF orders should be shipped in the next couple days and we'll probably have a few left over after that for those who were waiting until they were in stock to order.

 

[Jon A]

Do the NF 2.5-10x42 and NF 2.5-10x32 have the same size ocular.

I believe so. We're probably a month or so out for the 32mm. Aimpoint caps are something we'll look at in the future, but we're trying to focus on scopes at the moment.

Could you take some close up pics of the ocular? Is it the same "shape" as the other Hensoldts? If so, I've got the other ones cracked so my solution for them could probably just be scaled up.

I don't know. Please measure.

 

[.454Casull]

Here are some pictures of the ocular, the rim on the extreme outside has the largest diameter: 1.955, the rest is 1.893



So unfortunately it is not the same shape as the other Hensoldts.

 

[Fatelvis]

the NF 50mm NSX/F1 caps are now available for pre-order (should start shipping in a couple weeks):

Flip Up Cap Set, NightForce NSX, F1, 50mm
Yes, they are available separately. I've clarified the option a bit on the ordering page so it should be easier to do now.

Will the 50MM NXS cap set fit the NF NXS 3.5X50 scope? Thanks-

 

[bdv1pro]

Steiner 3-12x56

[kvincent]

Received my NF 2.5-10x42 set yesterday to join my HDMR set. Both are excellent products. Fit is tight but perfect. Time will tell how they hold up, but I am very optimistic based on observed build quality. They are highly recommended.

Thanks Jon. I hope you sell millions of these and make piles of money. I'm so glad to have an alternative to the disposable BCs. I'm telling all my shooting buddies about them and I'll buy a set for every decent scope (and binoculars) that I have.

I still think it would be great to have a spreadsheet to cross reference sizes so we could fit them to other less popular optics we might have. Just a thought...

[liftedlimo]

I fly home in a week and will measure my Steiner 3-12x56 to see if the 5-25 will fit. If so I'm ordering a set asap!

Also, since Steiner scopes ship with crappy plastic caps, have you thought about proposing to them the idea of selling your caps as standard equipment?

 

[Blackhawk 1]

Just ordered a set for a Leupold MK 6 3-18, I'm ready for a quality replacement to what I have been using.

 

[dangrullon87]

Any chance for a set for the US OPTICS SR-8?

 

[Johnnny13]

I am waiting for the Viper PST 2.5-10x32 FFP to come out.

 

[pepper 2111]

I believe this was answered earlier but i cant find it. Will the swfa 1-6 caps fit pst 1-4?

 

[RyeDaddy]

Just ordered a set for my NF 2.5-10x42. Hope I have enough clearance between the rail and objective for the cap to fit!

 

[lb1981]

Hi would it be possible to post to Ireland?

 

[ptrlcop]

Are these made of a material that takes paint well?

[BMerrick]

Looking forward to a set of these on the new Bushnell LRH that I am waiting for.

Where-as the owners of Bushy also own Butler Creek, the bummer comes with the fact that we are going to have to get the scopes in-hand to take measurements and pass them on to Jon....

It will be worth the wait though.

Any plans for making caps for Steiner 3-15x50...

It looks and seems to me that the material that the caps are made out of should take paint real well. The caps are made of a very rugged material and have performed flawlessly for me.

Jon, are there any plans to do caps for the Vortex Razor GenII 1-6x24? I'd like to order a pair if so.

 

[Keith03]

I just came back from the JCSteel match in Prescott WA that was cut short due to freezing rain and the lack of visibility that came with it.

Jon's lens caps held up great despite my best efforts with barricades and grinding the ocular cap against my holster on the walks between stages.
One of my guys broke his vortex obj cap on a barricade and it seemed like I found his ocular cap on the ground (although intact) just about every other stage.
One of my other buddies had bad visibility issues because he wasn't running any lens caps and his glass was always wet.
Looking at the money we spend to do this stuff, $100 to protect your glass and make sure you can actually see out of it is cheap insurance.

My vortex equipped buddy grabbed some of Jon's caps from the prize table even though vortex would have replaced them for free.

All the water on the scope is actually ice

Jon,
For three days now I have been unable to pay for the March scope caps on your website. The Payment button has not been functional. I've tried 3 computers and sent you a PM here, as well as a message on your website!

 

[sib1948]

Got my orders accepted last PM. Thanks for a great American made product!

PS-Discovered I just had to hit the NEXT button and that page allows you to pay however you choose.

 

[sib1948]

Just received my first pair for my 42mm March scope in the mail this morning! WOW!!! Where have these been the last 3 years since I got back into shooting? Jon has found the perfect solution to our scope cover issue. Too many pluses to describe, but they are perfect. Can't wait to get the S&B 56mm backorder. The inside of each cover bears the raised name and scope size they fit!

I have tried every other possible product, but these surpass them all hands down. The Tenabrex covers that came with my S&B 3-20 50mm are the only thing that comes close and these are better!

Pricey, I know at $100 bucks a pair, but look at what they're protecting. Can't beat the lifetime, no fault, transferrable warranty. Save your pennies and never replace those classic or tactical Butler Creek covers again.

Very well done Jon and thanks for taking such good care of us and our optics.

 

[BMerrick]

Jon A -

Do you have anything that will match up to the new Bushnell LRH 3-12 X 44 scope?

The measurements are as follows:

Eyepiece: 1.5980" / 40.58 mm
Objective: 2.0490" / 52.04 mm

Thank you in advance!

Bryce

 

[WilyCoyote]

It'll vary a bit from model to model, but most will be around .090 at the thickest spot.

I have 0.096 between my ATACR bell and rail. Do you think it will fit?

 

[blksno]

Bushnell SMRS 1-8.5


Eyepiece: 1.717 (43.6mm)
Objective: 1.340 (34mm)

 

[dangrullon87]

Any Chance for a US Optics SR8 ? Or if other caps already made will fit these specs.

Objective 1.382 OD
Eyepiece 1.711 OD

Thanks!
