I need some help with scope caps for my Swaroski Ph.  My gun is a lefthand 300WSM from Hill Country Rifle.  I have tried Butler caps and the release latch is on the left and interferes with the bolt. I have tried moving them clockwise and it is not the answer.  Any ideas woud be appreciated.   Thanks Sprig

Strange, I too use BC caps on a LH action rifle and don't have any interference.

My "latch" as you call it is at about the 9:00 position.

No problems at all....I'm stumped, friend.

 

Maybe, hopefully, some of the smart guys that hang out on here can help us. 

 

Welcome to The OT!!  

If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

Put a Buttler Creek Blizzard cap on the back ( that is the ones with the clear plastic center)  they dont have the little red release and work on the same type system as the front cap, or option B rotate the rear cap 90 degrees or what ever it takes to get the little red release out of the way.
