Camo Scope wrap

[Jon Lester]

Where does the camo self adhesive wrap that i have been seen on scopes come from? It is not tape but more like pre wrap or ankle wrap for horses.

McNett camouflage wrap

The Camoform is like Coban medical tape, the Allen camo (walmart) is more like cloth tape.

The mcnett shit is what you want. You can get it anywhere but I usually score off eBay.

Definitely get the camo wrap, not the tape. The wrap works great. I had the barrel and scope of my Rem 700 wrapped for over a year. Only reason I took it off is because I got caught in a rain and wanted to make sure and clean the barrel plus I'm going to be painting it once it gets back from the gunsmith.

You can reuse the camo wrap.

I think Hunters Specialties make what you are looking for. Try googling it

Anybody use this on an AR rig instead of Krylon painting?

Is there a sticky residue when the camo wrap is removed? Especially if it is on a barrel that heats up?

I have used this one below on several different scopes. Works great.

The real Mcnett Camoform cloth tape (medical wrap that's painted) works great. It does NOT leave any residue behind, even if it gets wet/rained on. I have a scope that's been wrapped in it for almost 2 years now and it's help up great. I have an AR that I sometimes use to coyote hunt with and it's been wrapped for over a year and had the shit used out of it and its still holding up very well.

I can't speak for the other brands, I've never used anything but Mcnett. It's only eBay for cheap.

I've used McNett for a few years on a variety of gear. Excellent wrap, no residue, not as good as a paint job but really helps against scrapes and burning yourself on the hot parts.

I found some camo tape at a tractor supply store, which was intended to wrap legs of a horse. It appeared to be the stuff that McNett was made out of (I already had some for comparison) except the horse wrap was wider and much cheaper. I think I got 4 rolls for seven dollars. It came with different patterns only two of which were camo and admittedly not as cool looking as the McNett, but every bit as functionable.

Can you use the McNett on barrels (the heat is ok)?

Also, I dont want to affect my POI. Does the wrap affect POI?

I've used the McNett quite a bit on my 700 SPS with no issues of POI shift or accuracy. Make sure it doesn't interfere with the free float.

Don't think I would want to put it on a rifle that would generate lots of heat like an AR. My 700 will get toasty when I shoot a 20rnd string but nothing like the AR.
