I bought one of these for my MKII .25 cal with a Hawke Sport Optics HK4010 Sidewinder 30 Side Focus 6-24X56:

It is a great case, I have a few others for some long range AR's and other rifles I own and they are a close rival to the Pelican's which are 3X the price. BUT this Bobcat is really tall and it barely fits.....too tight for my liking.

Anyone found a nice hard case to fit a bullpup with a big scope like this? I am looking for a Plano or Pelican like case that I can stand on and not worry about damaging my rifle, so no "thin" cases.

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
I just purchased a Pelican 1750 for the Bobcat MK2 from Gander Mountain. It was on sale, saved the shipping by going to the store and verified visually prior to purchase that it did in fact have all the proper foam inserts. When looking on line some of the vendors do not include the foam inserts with a lower advertised price tag and offer the foam inserts separately at additional cost.
I have not tried to cut any foam as yet but am slightly concerned that the FX high scope rings may create a problem even though the case is 15+ inches wide.

The Boyt Case noted above looks really good. Could you share the dimensions of that Boyt case?

The one i ordered should be the H-Series Long Gun Case. I made the order on the phone after asking them if they had anything that would fit the BC .25 with a little extra room for accessories.

As a follow up, I checked out the Boyd and didn't care for the latches. Just a personal thing. Too cumbersome to get them aligned. I ended up purchasing a Pelican Storm IM3200. 14" inside height. Fits my rig perfectly. The case is excellent. Latches are amazing, Very, very nice case. Perfect for the MKII.

Side note - I thought the 1750 would not be tall enough, at least for my rig. I think it was 13.5" high? The IM3200 is 14" and that gives me just under an inch top and bottom.
