    Flip ups suck.They're ok for open country hunters maybe but you have to have them open in the bush....then they get ripped off when pushing through scrub.

    I use a neoprene cover on my scope when not actually hunting (tramping into block or whatever) or when hunting in open country. But 90% of my hunting is in the bush, so lens are exposed and ready to go. I carry rifle horizontal and that helps keep rain/water off.
