Wondering what you guys are running as far as brand/model and size on your 2.5-10x44's. The dimensions are the same between the HP and the PST, so anyone would be fine. I'm looking at Butler Creek, but I want something to fit securely, so I am worried about getting too big or too small. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had that scope for a while, and used the Vortex brand caps. Absolute garbage. Stay away from those if you can.
Contact Aadland Engineering. They make flip caps for that model: http://shop.aadmount.com/Flip-Up-Cap-Set-Vortex-PST-HST-44mm-CAPS-PST44.htm

Pricey, but hands down the best damn caps I've ever seen. I have a set on my 2.5-10x32 PST.

It's too bad that vortex won't thread the objective and ocular bell. The leupold and tenebrex covers are really nice and don't make you feel like you're looking through a doughnut like everyone else's garbage.

I realize that doesn't help the op at all.

It's 2015....-screw in fold flat metal covers should be plentiful. For every man, woman and child.
