Scope rubber bumps

[Antler Daddy]

I don't want to pick on Leupold, but why do most scopes have a rubber piece on the scope bell to help prevent your eye from being knaskhed? I have not been hit in years, but my daughter was.

Do they sell a slip on rubber ring?

Yes, I bought some years ago to put on a shotgun scope as I'd get nailed every time I shot at a deer, forgetting to stay back.

It's been so long that I have no idea where I got them, but they are available.

Cool…I wonder why Leupold just does not use one?
