I RO’d my first experience at a PRS event this weekend and noticed a number shooters placed “tape” wraps on their scope bodies. I assume for grip or for protection (one pro even had a small neoprene “ring/cozie” on his). 1) what tape are you using? and, 2) would you use a 2” sun shield to provide a little protection (I saw a number of competitors ram the rifle forward into the supports and get caught up on the scope Bell (ouch). Thanks!
 
most guys use vet tape. mainly to protect their high dollar scopes against scratches and stuff.

the guys i've seen using cozie's as sunshades do it because their scope didn't come with a sunshade and it's also kind of funny and works.
