Jeez . . . .

Personally, I think the problem is the Brick of a scope that Zeiss built.

A 1.5 power should be a LOT more compact.

The Leupies on Jeff's Rifles are mounted a LOT more forward.

If anything, holding that rifle, (snd shooting some of Jeff's other rifles) confirmed for me the Superiority of the Leupold design (giving up a litle optically in order to reduce weight and increase the eyebox)
