Transit/Storage Case

G'day Readers,

I am looking at purchasing a transit/storage case for my new scope and wondering if there are other reputable case manufacturers other than Scopeguard that I should be looking at. Does Takahashi manufacture good solid Transit/Storage cases for their scopes, I know they do have available the Tenba soft cases but I would like something more solid and durable.

Dear Hans,

I can tell you one that I would not recommend anymore. Based on Dave Novoselsky's CN recommendation of Thermodyne cases in 2003, I called Josh Ackerman recently and he expressed an interest in doing my semi-custom case. I sent him detailed dimensions of my scope and never heard from him again. He didn't answer multiple phone calls or emails, even to say "sorry, we can't take the job." I had told him that I would need two more cases if this one worked out, but apparently that wasn't of sufficient interest.

Bottom line is I went back to Scopeguard. Don Holcombe replied promptly, quoted a fair price and is now building my case.

Best Regards,
Milt
