With me bushnell 3200 i recieve a scope shroud (big piece of metal the screws onto the end of the scope, not the eye piece). I was just wondering, what would one use this for?

Used as sunshades and have heard they help stop distortion from barrel heat.

Which 3200 did you buy that you recieved that with?
I had an Elite 3200 5-15x40mm with the sunshade, IIRC mine was 3 or 4"
They'll block the sun from giving you glare at angles

If it is short it is sunshade. They also make really long ones for varmit hunters, they prevent the heat waves from barrel distorting the vision.
