When I got mine I had to take a blizzard #4 front and a bushwacker #5 rear....

I got my Blizzards from bj, just tell him what scope your using when you order them.

I'm like Digger, got flip ups for my Varizone from bj. Good for rain, snow and fogging up.

I've got Blizzard see through #4 clear on both ends of my maxzone. See post re: for my 100th post. They are awesome scope covers. I only use the see-throughs for both ends of my scopes. I've got them on my 12 ga. Browning A5, my Cooey 22LR and my Paradox scopes. -JR

JR you sure about that

my Max Zone is bigger in the rear then in the front....

Thats why I had to go #4 blizzard front and #5 bushwacker in rear, he did not have a #5 blizzard. I just looked and it is a Max Zone scope. Anyhow's that's what it states on the side of it....

How much are the flip up caps ??

Dryhorn, not sure. I will find out when I hear from bj. I can't see them being too much, there's really not much to them.

Lebaron seems to have problems keeping stock:) Russel sporting goods is based in Calgary, I mail order from them all the time.

I'd never put anything but clear flipups on my scope. A few years ago a buddy of mine showed up at hunt camp with the fancy new "instant action" scope covers that you can't see through. I was standing watch near him on a drive during that hunt and watched him raise his gun as a doe ran by. Then he lowered his gun to figure out how to open his scope covers. Then he raised it again but the deer was long gone. I know, it was dumb to have the covers closed while on stand, but sh*t happens.
