Hello, I just purchased a Nikon M-223 4-16x42M BDC 600 scope, what size flip-open eyepiece and objective covers do I need? Thanks!

check the scope's spec. sheet it should have the diameters of the lenses on it.

I purchased this scope 1/3/15 (Amazon - B004MY5L9U) and the 11&28 covers did not fit. On both ends, they were too tight.Using the scope measurements and the Butler Creek chart, I ended up with the following covers and they fit perfectly.31 - objective19 - eyepieceVerify which scope you have. Check the measurements of the objective and eyepiece against the chart. There are several Nikon 3-9x40 scopes out there.

Though I am not sure about the flip open covers, but I do want to give you a heads up on the scope. If you are mounting on anything larger than .223 don't bother. Barska recommended this exact scope for my Remington 700P .308 and the sight shifted after one shot. Upon calling to discuss they then stated they would have never recommended that scope for that rifle. I even re-sent their email back to them showing this recommendation and they never responded and would no longer take my calls. So I bought a nikon BDC and shot a hole threw the Barska at 200yrds. I love to show my friends this when they come over. I can understand if they made a mistake, but they would not even acknowledge they did. Shame on them!!

The rings that come with it are extra high. If you are mounting on a flat rail I'd order a set of low rings. The tube diameter is 35 mm so you pretty much have to get them from Millet. The flip covers come with the scope.

Yes. I have 2. Excellent scope for M4 platform. It is compact with fast target acquisition BDC IS calibrated to 600 yds w/ 55 grain 5.56x45 ammunition. Remember it is a 3x scope so it is what it is. As good or better than scopes costing much much more BUT it is a battle scope not a target scope.

I got 2 lenses with mine (from a year or so ago) a 6mm and a 15mm. The 15mm lens gives a wider field of view while the 6mm lens "zooms" in on the target object for more detail - they should be labeled.The cap with the hole in it is used to calibrate the telescope mirrors (it's called a Collimation cap) - you should not need to use it. If you are interested in all the ins and outs of collimation, you can google it, but I've had my scope for over a year and have not needed to go through the process.

Butler Creek Scope Covers Clear 1.3 - 1.39in. This worked for me for the eyepiece.

I'd start with a good 2X Barlow lens. It doubles the mag of all your other eyepieces...

I returned the first Redfield I got because there appeared to be multiple red dots when looking through the scope. The seller sent me a second one, so I sold it before I ever opened the package. I purchased the Nikon P-223 BDC 600 Riflescope with Rapid Action Turret, Black, 4-12x40 from Amazon and am really happy with it. I've actually used it to hit plates at 200 m (at about 6X) standing without support in a competition, and it worked great on my Tavor.

Too much scope, why not buy the Nikon scope made specifically for the that caliber, Nikon P-223 3-9x40 Mate BDC 600.

This scope has a 40mm objective lens which Butler Creek flip up scope covers will fit nicely. The scope covers can also be found on Amazon.

You need to find the millimeter of the eye piece and the optical of the scope Then cross reference it to the graph or go to Butler Creek website and look up your scope and they list what size cover you need

The Nikon M-223 comes in several models which vary in length. This specific one, the BDC 600 measures 13.5". If it helps you any I have mine mounted on a Stag Varmint model. I can get to the charging handle but not as quickly as I'd like. Since this is a heavy target gun it hasn't made much of a difference but consider that when you buy. I'm very pleased with this scope's performance though.

I bought the Vortex Optics Flip Cap cover in size 4 (35-40 mm) and they work great for both ends of the scope. Be careful when you look at sizes because the 32 mm is the objective size not the outer diameter of the scope at the objective end.

Hi Ed, I didn't answered your question thoroughly earlier. So for your front objective cover, you can use size 1, which is 25.4mm, however for the rear cover there are not any rear flip up cover are small enough to fit it. Hope this helps.

I had the 50mm objective lens. So it wouldn't be the same. I went to my local hunting store and they had a chart. Might want to do that. Sorry I couldn't tell ya. But what I have found d out is, if you buy a scope that comes with covers, they are better quality than buyi g covers separately.
