[QUOTE="Mark37082, post: 2362150, member: 120066"] I’ve always tried to mount my scopes as low as possible without touching the barrel. I shoot for trying to keep them approximately 1/16th off the barrel. Well this was a problem on latest mount. I went with a Nightforce zero MOA one piece pic rail and the Leupold low PRW2 rings. I am currently running approximately .475” off the barrel. The rail itself is considerably closer to the bell of the scope. I’ll include pic so you see my issue. Not sure if there is solution using the NF rail. Should I just keep it the way it is or go for a new mount? I did have to adjust the zero lock considerably when sighting it in. [/QUOTE]
