Things that I hate.
Scopes on a lever action bush gun.....
Hope the old eye is okay Sonny.
How is the eye relief distance on that Vortex Diamondback 2-7x?
I remember you were considering the Leupold VX-2 and the Nikon P-300.
I know there are rail kits for forward mounting with longer eye relief scopes.
Guys with 450 Marlins usually talk about them lots.
The eye relief on the Vortex is less than one inch difference compared to a similar Leopold but that wasn't the problem.
Our range here in Hinton (great range btw) has a covered shooting bench.
I was doing great but as the day passed the sun kept on moving into my eyes.....So...
Stupid me leaned into the scope to get away from the sun's glare..baddabing...
Tagged me in the nose with a bigbore...lol
It's all good and I'm sure it will happen again at some point.
No...the pic will not be posted again..
