    New scope caps for Nightforce etc

    Aadland engineering in the states are making scope caps for all our popular and expensive scopes

    They are calling then the Aardmount.

    I need to get something for my NSX....

    Not the best picture on their website and not a lot of info either. What would be their benefits over butler creek flip up caps?
    If my work annoys me, I cull them

    They look reasonably good, not many in stock by the look of it..

    Might have to get a set for evaluation.

    Tenebraex are also available, the ones on my Premiers were most impressive

    NFs problem is the whole eye-piece turns with a power change unlike Leupys etc

    I'm pretty sure these are the caps that come standard on the March tac scopes.

    Light years ahead of the nasty butler creek caps but probably not quite as good as the Tenebrax caps.

    they look like a 5 year old kid designed them but from what i have read on SH they are 10x as tough as the buttler creek

    Tenebraex are good but not perfect, they don't seal like the butler creeks do so you get moisture on your lenses if hunting/shooting in mist/rain and they're bulky so not great if mounting low. The ocular cap comes loose on the adapter ring thing and spins around.

    I have a set of aadmount caps on my march scope. Had them for a while now, and never had an issue. Same cannot be said for the mass of butler creek caps that I went through.
    The only caps I have used that are better, are the alloy leupold ones.
