Bears a startling resemblance to one of my favourite hunting scopes
2.5-10x32 Sightron
What caliber is that rifle chambered for?
ILya
It has had a couple of thousand rounds of 7/08 and nearly 800 260's I never even noticed how short the eye relief Was til I read this thread Sure enough it is about 2.5 inches I love the scope and as I said it has been a favourite for over 10 years
I set-up that same exact scope on a friend's sporterized Mosin and also never had issues with eye relief.
I will try SWFA's scope on one of those as well. I am not awash in lightweight bolt guns and I do not own a 30-06, so I can't do that test. I do have a light-ish Mosin, so I can use that as a platform. Wth all that, I really think this scope was intended primarily for hunting ARs and I will start with it on there before I try it on a boltgun. That is where this configuration makes the most sense, I think. Why people assumed that this scope was meant for ultra light 30-06s is not clear to me.
Do you mind if I ask how heavy that rifle is? A buddy of mine is a huge 7-08 fan. He's been trying to convince to get one for a while now.
