Been enough for me on the lighter weight 300WM without a brake as well as the 7WSM's and 338LM's with brakes.

For comparison the SWFA SS 6x42 is 3.5" of eye relief, and it has never bitten me either.

S&B 3-12x50 PMII is 3.7" and the 5-25x56 is 3.7".

How much do y'all think is the minimum acceptable amount of eye relief?

Wish I would of had a little more this day, extreme uphill shot with a 300WM......... smile
