Posted By: Jesse Jaymes Optika 6 bolt clearance - 01/24/20
Realize they are fairly new, but a few Fire guys have run them. Concerned with bolt/bolt knob clearance mounting the Optic 6 as close to the barrel as possible. That rubber ocular adjustment ring looks ENORMOUS. For the few guys who've purchased and mounted the Optika 6 series.....any issues with running the bolt on a rifle?

My 2.5-15x44 is on a Rem 700 LA. No issue with the bolt throw but I did have to move up from talley lightweights to the medium because the magnification ring sat on the base of the rear mount. With mediums there is maybe 2 mm of space.

I've got one on a Ruger 257 wby. It's a 3-18x56 so I'm assuming that it sits quite a bit higher than the model you're looking at assuming it's a smaller objective. Either way, no clearance issues for me.

nope, mines a 56mm, 3-18

Yes, my bolt on Vudoo hits the mag ring on my Meopta, just barely. I just run it slowly and it works. I could go higher rings and solve it, but I like it as low to the barrel as I can get it.
