[QUOTE="misterc01, post: 1921406, member: 109160"] When I started, I read and tried to follow all the of the more experienced folks. In the quest for the lowest scope height, I have ended up with one rifle with a bottom part of the scope cover removed so it will go over the scope. That puts the height about 1/16 inch above the barrel. Now I get the best cheek weld, view through the scope, eye relief, etc., and THEN mount the scope. Result: better sight picture, comfort (no distorting my neck) and improved my accuracy. [/QUOTE]
