Anyone have a replacement or where to get it? Had trouble getting it back on and think I stripped the screw during it on the battery cap. Thanks in advance

Same exact thing happened to Foldemup year before last in Washington. We ended up going to Bass Pro and he bought another FF3 the next day. Complete sh*t design!!!

I'm sure they see this hundreds of times daily That was my experience too. The first one I got came with a cap that was so thin that it only had 2 or 3 threads on it and they stripped. I called and asked for another one and they sent me one. The replacement was much thicker and had a lot more threads and has worked fine. And this reminds me I need to replace that battery. Pro tip - do it now and don't wait until the day before the season. Don't ask me why I know that.

Yep, I changed a perfectly good battery in fear of it going out during a week long hunt. I think the rubber gasket that goes around the base of battery compartment had gotten a little crooked and wouldn’t let my top engage the threads. I tore it all to hell trying to fix it. Ended up buying a vortex to give it a try. They need to design a cap that can be removed without any tools.

Good deal. Burris has an unconditional lifetime warranty, I had no doubt that they would fix it.
I Well, the way I see it is there's just too many assholes On a good day there's a bunch of assholes in here. On a bad day there's too many assholes in here.

I never had an issue getting the battery cap back on. Once you push the battery down enough to seat it, the caps have always went right on for me. If you don’t seat the battery, you’ll have issues.
83% of all statistics are made up.

I only had trouble with the first one that I bought, due to it being so thin and having so few threads on it. The replacement cap is plenty thick and hasn't been a problem at all. I replaced my battery yesterday. I have 2 others that have been fine too. I think the problem might have been with the earliest ones they produced, and they corrected the issue. As you said, you gotta seat the battery first. The Burris is a good sight, but I sure wish I could still see well enough to get by without it.
