First Thank You in advance for any help you can offer.
Several questions and some Math here and I need some advice from someone with more experience with scopes that I have.
I have a Rifle here that when I measure from my eye to the beginning of the rail is 14 inches. The rail ends at 20 inches giving me 6 inches of total rail to work with.
This leaves me with two options I am looking at;
A) A Scout Scope.
B) A Pistol Scope.
Matching the Eye Relief to the rail distances, balance and taking in to account possible Paralex issues; I have all but eliminated Pistol scopes as they would require (as I understand it) more distance than I have rail, without effecting the forward balance of the rifle dramatically.
Does this make sense?
Okay If this makes sense I need a Scope with a minimum of approximately 10 inches of Eye Relief. Considering the focal end of the scope (closest to my eye) will hang from the rear most ring a minimum of 1 1/2 to 2 inches.
Taking this in to account, would this work?
Specifications for Burris 2.75x Matte Black Scout Scope:
Adjustment Click Value 1/2 MOA @ 100 yds
Magnification:2.75x
Objective:20mm
Field of View:15 ft @ 100 yds
Eye Relief:8.5" to 14"
Tube Diameter:1"
Length: 9.2"
Weight: 7 oz
Finish: Matte Black
Reticle: Heavy Plex
In my Application based upon the given measurements will this scope work?
