A Butler Creek Element 40mm objective scope cover is a rugged lens protector designed to shield your optic's front glass from weather, dust, and impact when you're in the field or between shots. Built with a flexible multi-ply sleeve and reinforced stainless steel hardware, it handles the punishment of hunting, range work, and backcountry use without compromising quick access when you need it.
The Element design prioritizes speed and reliability. A button-activated flip mechanism lets you uncover your objective lens instantly, and the 40mm fit accommodates a broad range of modern rifle scopes. The cap seats securely to create an airtight, watertight seal—critical for keeping moisture and debris off your glass in rain, snow, or dusty conditions. The objective cover also features an interchangeable dope disk insert printed with wind and elevation notes, so you can reference your load data or ballistic info without breaking your scope picture.
This cap works in two open positions (180 and 270 degrees), giving you flexibility in how it sits when flipped back. The black polymer construction is tough enough for hard use while remaining compact and lightweight. Whether you're a long-range hunter, competition shooter, or someone who keeps optics maintained through seasons of heavy use, a quality objective cover extends the life of your glass and keeps you ready when conditions turn rough.
