The newer butler creek caps are junk. They WILL break immediately at the hinge area. There really aren't any good options. "Hooper" here on the Hide is a gunsmith/ machinist and he was talking about making quality aluminum thread on flip caps at one point. PM him and ask. If enough people do we will get some quality caps.
