[QUOTE="steffen, post: 202286, member: 11034"] your post reminded me of when i first bought my rifle. i bought the rifle used, and when the rifle came in the mail i couldn't afford a real scope. so i just dropped by the local gun store and bought a "el cheapo" 3-9x40 scope, and headed for the range imediately. for the first couple of shots everything was fine, i got a bit eager i guess and probably crawled closer to the scope. when i pulled the trigger the eyepiece of the scope just barely touched my eyebrow. when i got home i checked the scope's specs on the internet: 2.8" eye relief. so i personaly thinks 3" eye relief is adequate on rifles in that recoil-range [/QUOTE]
