I know the Meopta is a bulky looking scope but for the money it’s hard to beat the price on a 2.5x15 30mm illuminated reticle how ever the magnification ring is bulky and when the bolt is fully opened it slightly rubs the magnification ring. The mount is a DNZ medium height. I assume the only option is to slide scope but that messes up the eye relief https://i.postimg.cc/C5CN4pyX/IMG-2780.jpg

I don’t think this would be an issue with any other scope nor would it be an issue with this scope without a high bolt. This scope is jam up I hate to have to find another. https://i.postimg.cc/BbtV6gFn/IMG-2783.jpg
