[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 449871, member: 15748"] Just bear in mind that scope height isn't the only thing affected by changing shooting position; eye relief will be seriously impacted as well. A scope used on a gun shot primarily from the bench, or, say, sitting, will be much further back in the rings than one set up specifically for prone shooting. I can't shoot my silhouette guns prone without great difficulty, and I can't shoot my prone guns offhand and get a full field of view. Just doesn't work that way. Most hunting guns are a compromise of something in between, precisely because you never know just how you'll be firing in the field. Just some stuff to keep in mind before you go loctiting the rings in place! [/QUOTE]
