I've found that it's better to take your scope/rifle the store with you to get the proper fit. I just did that with my new Monarch 3-9X40, the book said it took a 19 and a 9 in butler creek flip ups, It took 27 and 14, I've never had any fit by ordering out of what the book says.

Mearure the outer diameters of the eyepiece and objective lens on both scopes and order by size from the chart.  Also you can go to the scope manufacturer website and get the eyepiece and objective diameters.  Most 40mm objectives use a #31 cover and most 42mm objective lens either use a #31 or #33 cover, unless they are AO.

In contrast to the micro-measuring needed for the BC flipups, the only thing needed for the stretchable neoprenes is the tube length. That Burriss takes an SS11 and the Nikon an SS13. Can be located by googling up <competitor website removed>, or by requesting them of this retailer.

He is asking about clear flip up lens covers. I highly doubt he would be able to see through your neoprene cover.

   FFII 3-9x40    Blizzards  #04 and #07     Std Flip-opens  #10 and #25
 
   I couldn't find any info for the Nikon.
   I listed both types of covers because the last Blizzard cover I got(amber)was so blurry I couldn't see through it. Just a heads up.
