What scope covers to get for nightforce shv

[Sako79]

I bought a nightforce shv 3-10x42. Im wondering what scope covers are everyone using for the eye piece and the objective. Is it worth it to go night force or just the butler creek

I’m using the Butler Creek scope bras, but a lot of folks around here like the Scope Bumper caps. There’s a thread about them if you search for it.

I went Butler Creek on mine.

I recently bought a set of scope bumpers for my ATACR and like the low profile of the a lot.

I'll just say that the NF/Tenebrax cover will barely fit, where the Butler Creek will not, on a 50mm shv mounted in Sportsmatch To84 rings on a t3x lite. On that specific combo, I'd say that after using them a few months I like the NF/tenebrax cover well enough to not mind what it costs. But if the BC would have fit, yeah, I would have used that.

Yep, same scope. I can't remember what numbers they were and I even pulled it out of the safe but don't see size numbers on them either.

The covers didn't fit with T084 on mine either, had to go up to the HT073 and that's with a 42mm. It does have a custom barrel that has a slightly different profile too so that didn't help.

When you measured yours, did you measure where it shows the + 0 - or did you measure it on the adjustment part.

Here are my measurements from front to rear of scope

Objective 50.25mm

+ 0 - 43.83mm

Adjustment ring 42.77mm
