flytie Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Just wondering how you lose them? Mine haven't come off once. I did say I was clumsy They seem to dislike the Brady sleeve that came with my rifle nearly as much as I do, and the eye piece ones just seem to come off when I'm stalking. I have got some calipers now, so I have measured the scope accurately. Hopefully this will ease the problem :yp: If not, next time it's superglue ft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thin bit o' neoprene or foam inside will see you right if they are a little too big, grips it well but you can still take it off if need be.

Perhaps I won't superglue them then maybe just use the bikini's the scope came with. They are just such a faff to deal with in a hurry There must be an answer somewhere ft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
