    scope cover clearance issue


    I finally got the scope I want mounted on my #10PH (.223)
    I was able to use low Millet rings with the barrel contour, and I have about 1/8" clearance. It fits me PERFECT at this height.
    Problem is, I don't have enough room for scope covers. I prefer the BC flip open type, but as it is, NOTHING will fit.
    Any ideas how I can protect my lenses without raising the scope?

    Find one of the bikini scope covers. Not sure who makes them but basicly a giant rubberband with wide pockets to cover the lens.

    I have cut out the bottom of scope covers a couple times. The bikini covers still hold just as they used to, but the BC covers may be a tad loose if you cut the notch too big.
