## Description

This is the last flip cap you will ever need! Virtually indestructible, this cap will fit snugly on nearly all Vortex riflescopes and features a snap flat spring that will keep your line of sight unobstructed. Rifle ranges the world over are littered with broken flip caps. This is one cap you will most likely never see in a flip cap boneyard.

Review: Perfect fit. - Well worth the money to keep that safe dust off your optics.
Review: They simply work. - 11/11/2019 Update: So I purchased my 3rd set of Vortex Defender flipcaps. I have a Razor HD Gen II 4.5-27x and two Viper PST Gen II on other rifles. So an interesting thing I noticed is that on the original covers I had to add zip ties around them because often times when I would open the cap it would start coming off the scope, which would be a huge pain and during a PRS match could impede you on a stage. On my new set of flip caps for my 5-25 PST Gen II, they clearly updated the design and material on these so that they no longer slip. As a matter of fact - they were reasonably annoying to get onto the scope and I tested them rigorously opening and closing them and there were no failures. It's nice to see companies listen and continually improve their products. *** Original Review *** Although these are not my absolute favorite scope caps, these are some of the best I've had on my rifles. They're reasonably rugged, low profile, stay in place, and they flip ALL the way back. I've put 400 rounds down range with my Razor HD II 4.5-27 with the Vortex Defender caps and had 0 issues. When I purchased my Viper PST Gen II 3-15 FFP I knew the Vortex Defender Flip Caps were a no brainer.
