Ringman, I took measurements useing my scoped rifles. Seems like a more accurate way to get a real life reading.
Both the Leupold and Zeiss scope are on tikka rifles that are exact in every way except caliber.
Both scopes are adjusted to fit me when the rifle is shouldered.
The Zeiss scope sits just less than 1/4" further back when measuring from the recoil pad to the scope.
I then shouldered the rifle with the Zeiss scope and had a friend measure from my eye to the scope and he measured 3.6"
I actually own a Zeiss Terra3 and have used one for about a year. Though it doesn't make me an expert I think it does qualify as some experience.
It sure beats just shooting my f**king mouth off when I've never owned a terra3 nor fired a rifle with one on it for that matter.
