Good fit for Steiner P4XI
4 Stars
Good fit for Steiner P4XI
These caps fit a Steiner P4XI well and are the best option I've found for this scope after a lot of searching. Overall, I'm happy with them, but there are some downsides.Pros:- Good fit on scope- Sturdy and protective- The caps fold back pretty far when open, so they don't get in the way- The cap closest to your eye has two open positions. One position points straight up to display a Dope disk, the other lays back on the scope to get the cap out of the way.Cons:- The cap closest to your eye covers the focus ring. This isn't a big issue, since you'll probably set the focus for yourself once and not adjust it again. If you need to change the focus, though, you'll have to remove the cap.- Depending on how your scope is positioned in the mount, there may not be enough of the scope tube to fully seat the cap on the end furthest from your eye. If this happens, the tube will not fully insert into the cap and the plastic ring at the end of the cap will not be seated on the scope tube. This makes the cap a little less secure but isn't a major issue for me.- The rubber doesn't hang onto the scope tube especially well. While I don't expect the caps to come off when sitting on the scope (open or closed), you may have to hold onto the rubber when you flip open the cap. This isn't a huge nuisance, but it's worth mentioning.With all the cons, it may sound like I don't like these, but I think they work fine. They could definitely be better, but they do what I want them to do, so I'd recommend them.Note that the correct fit for the Steiner P4XI is Eyepiece E-10 (41.5-46mm) & Objective Lens Cover O-24 (28-31 mm). Another review I saw on Amazon referenced the Steiner P4XI on a different size of these caps, but it was NOT the correct fit.

I just recieved my scope cover for the front of my 4x12x44 vortex scope. Quality seems real good. Fit is great. The problem I have with it is it does not lay down flat on my scope. So when it’s open it will rub and catch on my backpack while hunting. This does not match the advertising pictures at all. That is why I ordered it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Vortex Optics Defender Riflescope Flip Caps are a reliable and practical accessory

Style: Eyepiece (E-10) & 40mm Objective Lens (O-40)Verified Purchase
The Vortex Optics Defender Riflescope Flip Caps are a reliable and practical accessory for protecting your riflescope lenses. Designed with durability and convenience in mind, these flip caps provide effective shielding against dust, debris, and impact.

The build quality of the Defender Flip Caps is impressive, featuring a robust construction that ensures long-lasting performance. The caps securely attach to your riflescope, staying firmly in place during rugged outdoor activities.

One of the standout features is the flip design, allowing for quick and easy access to your scope's lenses. With a simple flick of the finger, the caps can be flipped open or closed, ensuring efficient operation without obstructing your view or hindering your shooting experience.

The caps provide excellent protection against scratches and impact, keeping your lenses in pristine condition. They are also compatible with various Vortex Optics scopes, adding versatility and convenience for users with multiple riflescopes.

While the Defender Flip Caps offer reliable lens protection, some users may find the sizing options limited, especially if they have non-standard or larger objective lenses. It is important to double-check the compatibility and choose the appropriate size to ensure a proper fit.

In conclusion, the Vortex Optics Defender Riflescope Flip Caps are a valuable investment for anyone seeking to safeguard their riflescope lenses. With their durable construction, easy flip design, and reliable lens protection, these caps offer peace of mind during outdoor shooting or hunting activities.

Bought these based on the reviews. That was a mistake. The Butler Creek fit my Vortex Scope better than the Vortex Defenders. They were “sized” correctly based on the Vortex chart and the scope they were going on. Stick with the Butler Creeks. They seem to be better quality and are more quiet when you pop them open. For more than half the price the BC are a much better product, value and fit.

5.0 out of 5 stars durable and doesn't hit face.
Reviewed in Canada on February 18, 2024
Style: Eyepiece E-10 (41.5-46 mm)Verified Purchase
More durable than other plastic scope covers, of which I have destroyed many. Aluminum scope covers hit hard in the eyebrow and don't absorb the shock to scopes when guns get dropped in the field. I like that it has no thumb release button to stick out from the side and hit me in the nose. It is thin enough so that it doesn't take up too much eye relief, which is very important for the recoil of today's light powerful rifles.
