That is badass hitting those clays. I did some measuring. I need to move forward with the scope about an inch. I can move the forward ring forward one more slot and the rear one can come forward two more. I went prone with it, and found myself wanting to move it forward for optimal eye relief. The height felt good, but I'll get a better sense for that after I put it to use. My favored LOP is 13 1/2 or more. I have tried compact stocks and loathe them.
Thanks.
While you are measuring you might want to measure sight over comb. The bolt action in your pictures have the sight (scope center) quite a bit higher over the comb (Cheek of the stock) than the AR setup you posted. My opinion is that height of sight over the stock comb should be the same for all platforms. I ordered a riser extension rail yesterday! Good deal. I'm looking forward to your range report. Here's to this rig breaking the Barnard Curse.

One day I'll tell you the story about me, my wife and slot machines. The Barnard curse is real.

I got the riser rail in. I installed it and moved the scope forward a good bit. Great advice folks. Thanks for helping me put this rifle together. I am not sure when I'll have a chance to shoot it, but I'll let you know how it goes when I do.

Got these put together. Paid a little more for the lower that had the Geissele triggers, pretty nice ttrigger. 16" stainless barrel, standard 5.56 chamber. I wanted the Wylde but they kept getting sold out before I could commit. Christmas in March. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/7hZqJp35/20220310-130520.jpg)
