Scope question
I have a Redfield 4-12x40 scope on my Ruger 10/22.
Does anyone else have to pretty much have the scope mounted as far back as possible to get a good view? The back ring is at the very edge of the rear of the base and the scope itself is slid back as far as it can go with a ring on each side of the adjustment knobs. I don't think I've ever seen a gun with a scope mounted this way and I think it looks stupid, but if I don't mount it this way, I can't see through the scope. Pic 1 Pic 2

Re: Scope question
How it looks isn't important, only how it shoots....
Mine is pretty far back on my bolt .22

Re: Scope question
That is an indication your scope lacks adequate eye relief. Eye relief is an attribute not many shooters take into account when selecting a scope.

Re: Scope question
You may need to try differrent base, I have same Redfield as yours mounted on my Winchester SS Featherweight Model 70, I use two piece reversible base(Burris) that allow me to move the scope further away so I can get a good view, Cabelas also carry them.

Re: Scope question
How far is it from your eye though? Since there is no real recoil to deal with, getting scoped when shooting shouldn't be a problem.
