[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 1097218, member: 34084"] It looks too far back to me, but with the bolt missing, it's difficult to gauge. It really depends on your cheek weld in your most important shooting position. If you shoot prone most often, for example, be sure to set the scope location when you're in the prone position. I tell shooters to close their eyes, get a solid grip and comfortable cheek weld, and then open their eye and tell me what they see. Then I adjust the scope location to give them a full field of view. If they need to raise their head to see through the scope I have them install a cheek pad to get to the correct height. [/QUOTE]
