Has anyone used the Buttler Creek Flip Up scope covers on the Zeiss Conquest 3x9x40.
I just bought one of these scopes and I would like to use the flip up covers but the Zeiss has a heavy rubber ring around the eye piece which is glued on. Doesn't look like it will allow one to use this flip up unless you cut the rubber piece off. Has anyone else mounted these covers on the Zeiss Conquest.

I have and they mounted just fine.  Just focus first before sliding them on.  They will slide over the rubber part you're talking about.

OK great I was not sure if one had to remove the rubber or not. I will measure the scope and get the correct size. Those are pretty good covers. Keeps a lot of the rain and snow out.

Thanks for the help.

You don't even have to measure, just call Chris at SWFA and he'll know which ones to send.

You may also post on the above thread and the good folks at SWFA will tell you the exact BC's your scope requires.
Or you may call them up and ask.
 
Best of luck with your scope!
It's a goodin'!! Wink
