My calipers are in storage and their site shows diameter variations down to the thousandths (which seems a bit excessive, but precision is good I guess). Tape measures aren't fine enough, just as they're not long enough to measure my, you know.

T_Inman Campfire Ranger Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 20,204	Nope, what I need I believe you just gave me: the inside diameter of the sunshade (or cap cover, or whatever it is called) housing, or the outside diameter of the scope's objective housing. I definitely could have worded that question better. thanks! I just reread your OP and answered my 2nd question. Last edited by T_Inman; 03/14/21.
