[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 2005575, member: 109917"] This is a 358 Winchester built by John Hofmiester, I really don't want to go grinding on the bolt handle, I would be open to massaging the bolt handle to clear by reshaping though. I would like to keep it as low as possible, but I am beginning to think that is not possible. I tried a Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x36mm in 1" low and medium Talley Lightweight mounts, both rubbed. I tried Zeiss, Leica and Swarovski in medium 30mm Talley Lightweight mounts and they rubbed as well. I cannot find dimensions for the ocular on Leupold VX 2 2-7 and 3-9, hoping they are close to the FX-II. I have a Murphy Precision picatinny rail and low Nightforce UltraLite rings, but I would need to have an adjustable cheek piece installed to use this setup. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it! Darryle [/QUOTE]
