I think when spending the money on Leupold sights you should definitely keep them protected with legitimate optimized leupold accessories. I do think their flip covers are a hint expensive but the truth is their quality and stability helps justify the cost.

This Leupold flipback scope cover was a perfect fit for my Leupold scope. It is perfectly crafted, screws on tight, magneticly holds it's self solidly in place. Pretty pricey though but since I went the expense on the scope I didn't want something second rate hangin on it and this is a first rate product. I searched on line and Optics Planet was one of the few places that stocked it and free shipping on my purchase is always a nice bonus.

The Alumina Flip up / Flip Back lens covers work great, were easy to install and mate perfectly with my Mark4 1.5-5x20 scope.

Overall these lens covers work just fine. One problem I found when installing them is the covers don't always end up on the top of the eye piece when you srew them on.

Looks good, but the first time I pulled the trigger, the front scope cap ends up on the ground and the leupold emblem also off in the grass; really not cemented too well & I am not too sure this will not happen again; attached according to directions & shooting a 270 so recoil should not be a problem.

Author: Alan Black (verified customer) , I am a hunter and certified reloader. I spend much time at the range and am contantly looking for ways to make my rifles more accurate be it through optics improvement or improving the load for every bullet configuration., from Waynesville, NC on Dec 13, 2010
Pros:  Hi quality product with incredible tolerances, Very attractive design
Cons:  If your scope is on a low mount, you need to remove the scope to install the objective cover
Would recommend:  yes

If you combine Leupold quick release bases and rings (which all my rifles now have...) the issue of removing the scope to install or remove the objective covers is moot! These are hi quality products (they're Alumina!) so they are not cheap! You can get less expensive covers but they won't look as nice and won't function as well!
