How are you guys keeping your scopes covered?

Butler creek flip opens have served me very well 25 years.

but Ryan and Jake mounted my scope on the 6UM and sent it with the full neoprene.

I wasn't sure if I'd like it but ran it a season and will likely stay with it.

Butler Creek pros: prolly faster because I can flip them at any time in the shot process vs the neoprene, I have to pull it off before I cheek weld (or let go of the pistol grip).

Neoprene pros: full scope protection, not just the lenses.
 
Butler Creek. They're the most low profile covers I've seen. I often carry my rifles in a Kolpin Gunboot on my quad to get to a spot and it was always a tight fit with others and if they fitted they would get ripped off trying to get the rifle out.
 
I like the scope bumpers after having just about every other cap on the market. They are pricey though.

A lot of caps on the market either don’t last a full season or make a stupid amount of noise. I’ve used bikini covers, which work, but since they aren’t attached to the gun it’s one more thing to forget.

Butler creek are probably the go to though
 
not cheap but these are best and most durable flip up caps that I've used.
Indeed! I finally gave up on Butler creek after trying to superglue them back together in the field multiple times. I bought one set of the AAdland flip covers and was impressed enough that now all of my scopes have a set on them.
