Spot , I will join in with Gramps; I had an 85 in .25-06 with a Vx-3 3.5 X 10 in low Optilocks ( two piece ). My empties would hit the the round part on the bottom of the adjustment area below the caps. The round would actually flip back into the loading port backwards on top of the loaded round. I have a 75 in .270 WSM and have no problems. I also have an 85 in .308 with no problems, hence the long action only idea. I sold the 85 as I lost confidence in a quick second shot. These things shoot great, but what good is a 54 degree bolt lift when you have to mount the scope a foot off of the barrel.
I swiched over to Talleys with high rings and the problem was solved but those great lines were ruined with the scope up in the air that high.
