Got my scope mounted -

[Peter Laidler]

To be honest Norton, the cheek piece is the least of your worries because with that telescope mounted that far to the rear, it's your right eye that's going to get it first. There is insufficient eye relief and when it recoils, you're going to get it. But you'll only get it once!

The eye relief for correct head positioning on the stock would crack my skull. But to get the correct sight picture through the lens my head sits too far back on the stock. But good point as I would probably have discovered! I'll reposition for a more aesthetic appearance and comfort on my end of things - Thanks as always for the heads up, so's to speak!

Thanks for the link also - I ordered the mount from them but my fun tickets were out when I ordered. I just received some funds yesterday on a sale so am now able to order the cheekpiece.

Be well
