Rifle Scopes Nightforce 5.5X22X56

Re: Nightforce 5.5X22X56

I don't know exactly what the size is, but before you buy put this into consideration. with the hole eye piece moving when you change your objective you caps will move with it, I know my buddy bithes about his for this reason, I just shoot my NF's without caps.

I just wanted to let you think of this before you make the decision.

Thanks Bob, and I didnt think about that with the eye piece moving when you power up or down, thats a good point. The bikinis are okay but I think i would perfer flip ups. thanks for the replies.

I stopped using the Butler Creek caps on my NF scopes and went back to the bikini cover when in the field and a neoprene cover when in the safe. Works just as well as the caps. Nothing against the Butler Creek as I have never had a problem with them, but the rotating eye piece does create a problem for them.
