Where can I get Flip up scope end covers for a Bushnell 6500 Elite

[rdgietz]

Hi there..

I am hoping that someone can tell me where i can get some tactical flip up scope end covers for a Bushnell 6500 Elite (4.5-30 x 50) tactical scope. I have been searching the internet for a day and cant find any listing for this type of item. Would appreciate the help. Thanks.

For those interested i have put the scope on my Swiss Arms Classic green.

Thanks again for any help

Butler Creek flip open scope caps are your answer. Measure the eye piece and objective (front end) of your scope and select the correct size from this chart: http://www.eabco.com/flip_open.htm Note: Since your scope isn't listed by model, click on the chart on this webpage. Several places sell these caps in Canada. I get mine usually from Higginson Powders. Butler Creek caps are pricey but well worth the expensise, you'll never have buy replacements!

My advice would be to physically try them on the scope until you find some that fit. Ive seen time and time again where the listings on the charts and books are wrong and the caps fit to loose or too tight. Just my two cents...

Thanks alot for the advice. I will measure my scope and see if i can talk with the people at higginson Powder on Monday. Thanks again..

They stretch a bit so err on the too small side...

Look for a pair that have these numbers on it;
39 40 43 TO BLIZ
on the objective lens cover flip up.

Al Simmons has a good supply of Butler Creek scope caps. Call Paulette or Tim with the measurements and they can ship them out.
