I'm looking for new scope for a Browning .22 semi-auto? It had the cantilever mount over the takedown area. The scope needs to have extended eye relief. What do you recommend?

Get a PAIR of leup dual dovetail offset rings...... mine are 'lows', but mediums would clear the ob bell to let it slide back even more....

Pat,
That would definitely solve it. Thanks for the advice; That's what I need. I guess I have to buy two sets. That sucks.

Put a WTB ad in the classifieds. Or call Leup and tell them why you need them. They may just send you a pair.....

Put a 2.5x Leupold Ultralight on it in regular low rings

5 inches + of eye relief.

Short, light, wide field of view. Perfect for a Browning .22

Called Leupold. They worked out a custom set of DD offset highs for $32. I'll try that. Thanks again Pat.
