Thread: Leupolds and aluminas

I thought the flip part of the alumina cover could rotate independent of the threaded section that attaches to the scope? It takes an age, but if you hold the knurled section tight as it is attached to the scope, you can make incremental rotations of the flip part. All you do then is twist, align, twist align until it is removed.

I'm sure I've done this on the alumina caps I have had, and definitely done it on the Swaro caps when there was not enough clearance between scope and barrel.
