Case or no case on spotter

[outdoor_matt]

Yep I have a Kings neoprene cover on my Kowa 663. For me it’s worth it as I generally carry it in the side water bottle pockets on my Seek pack. Gives me a bit more peace of mind when I’m bushwhacking.

I have/use the Swaro stay-on case for mine, but that’s how I bought it used. In the last 6 years I’ve only taken it off once. I don’t know if I would’ve purchased one, had the case not come with the scope, but I do like having it on there with how expensive these scopes are.

What neoprene cover is that? I haven't seen alot of options for the atx other than the factory cover and this looks nice and light.

I don't think this is the same brand as the one you're referring to but here's another option for Swaro's.

Spotting Scope Skins for Swarovski

Finally an easy, yet very effective way to cover and protect your expensive Swarovski spotting scope. King's Camo concealment in Desert Shadow and Mountain Shadow options.

+1 for neoprene cover

 

[SOIHUNT]

Konex is the cover I have so far happy with it! I’m planning on doing a write up on how goes on after a scouting trip?

With the price of high end optics, I can't see how it's even a question. It's a cheap insurance policy, plus it's removable. Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

SOIHUNT, would love to see write up after your trip

I’ve been having hell trying to find a sleeve or at least smaller case for my Bushnell Trophy 20-60x63 spotter. Can anyone here recommend something to take a look at?

I wrap a Z seat around my scope when it goes in it's pocket.. Scope comes out, ass goes on seat..

I run neoprene and wouldn’t change it.

konex Covers:
I’ve had time to use this cover pretty hard and really like it, but I have Pro’s and Con’s
Pro’s:
Fits great and the front and rear covers stay on when pulling the scope in and out of the pack I use.
I like the the clips if you want to remove the covers completely (especially if it’s windy). Overall great cover!
Con’s:
The Velcro that keeps the two half’s together sucks when pulling out my scope this started pulling apart after about 30 times in and out of my pack ( I wished they would have put a couple of the small clips on it or little hooks like you find on a woman’s bra I know what you are thinking and well the little hooks would work great!
Over all great product and like anything you buy there’s always room for improvements!!

I personally cannot believe I bought the Swaro case at 300$ for mine...but I did and it hasn't come off since. Not sure what protection it adds, but I am certain it helps.

I have the Kowa stay on case on my TSN 664. I have a qd Manfrotto 200 plate to use on an adaptor on my tripod, and another adaptor on my bench rest scope clamp mount, so i can switch from either very quickly and keep wear on the mounting thread on the scope to nothing. I did remove the flap that covers the mounting plate from the stay on case as it is not quite long enough to reach around the mounting plates.

My vote goes to always using a case

Yes I agree with the konex neoprene covers. I also pair mine with the marsupial spotter case. Best investment for my Swarovski BTX.
