Scope protection?
I have a new Remington 700 ML/Nikon scope combo. I hope this isn't a dumb question. Does anyone make a shield for the scope? My gun doesn't have an enclosed breach and the bottom of the scope is already black from sighting it in. If not, what can I use to clean the scope with?
Thanks a bunch.

RE: Scope protection?
I cut a small rectangular piece of leather, and then used electrical tape to hold it on the bottom of the scope. Change the tape, and clean the outside of the scope every time you clean the rifle. If you don't protect your scope, the flash from your #11 caps may burn the paint off the bottom of your scope.
