Options better than Scopecoat?

I bought a couple scopecoats for a s&b 3-21x50 & a zeiss v6 3-18x50 but ended up sending them back. The fit-coverage-protection was not what I was hoping for.
Are any other options available to better fit/protect glass with big turrets? Not sure if I'm sold on the solo hunter rifle cover style but open to other options.

Which model did you have? They have different thicknesses and the thicker ones are much nicer and provide better protection.

Check out Scopeguard Alaska. I purchased a couple of them three years ago and they provide better coverage, have a thicker material, and have a sling that fits over the barrel so you're less likely to lose it. Great folks to deal with as well. Hope this helps.

I believe they were the standard model, I have a few others on standard profile scopes that fit fine.

I have owned the standard 3mm a long time ago. I personally feel they are near worthless(just better than nothing). I only use the XP-6 now. They have great coverage and enough protection for more coverage.

I like the look of the extra material in the middle that covers almost down to action.
I think I will order a couple of those.

thanks guys

Would you recommend for gun safe use only, to keep the scopes from getting banged up when stored?
