is this scope a long Eye relief ? I'm installing on a mosin and it will have to mount in front of bolt.

It depends on what you consider being a long eye relief scope as this scope will give eye relief for approximately four inches when you adjust the eye relief at the rear of the scope. I hope this helps you, Brian.

I think so as you can't be right on it. You have to be an inch or two behind it to see correctly.

This question has already been answered on this forum. No it is a standard eye relief scope.

It is definitely LER. I have this mounted on a scout mount and have no problems with eye relief.

Hi, Your eye should rest against the "eye piece". There is no eye relief as one rifle scope.

Hi Jim: I have a Mosin Nagant 7.62x54r Rifle compared to your rifle it is a cannon. The scope is Rock solid on my rifle and it will on yours too. Make sure that you have a good solid scope mount base and good rings choose some rings that aren't too high from the receiver. Tighten everything good after you adjusted for proper eye relief and you should have no problems. Have fun at the range Wayne

You won't need anything else to mount this scope mount you might however, need to do some adjusting with a file to make sure the forward bolts line up, I had to but all guns are slightly different

I think in general is great, I can't answer your question about eye relief. I mounted mine on a 22-250 which has a different recoil. This scope has the TBX reticle which is customized for 55-grain loads in .223 Rem. sighted-in at 200 yards. The bottom post is marked in 100 yard increments out to 600 yards not in mil dots. The top post does have mil dots which can be used to estimate ranges. If I had known this I would have purchased a different scope. The scope also has a 30 mm tube not 1 inch.

Yes, BUT! Make sure during your range time to check and tighten the screws every few rounds or so. On my Mosin the rail would slightly shift forward and after every 20 or so rounds I would need to readjust the mount. Having to readjust will effect the zero slightly, but it's nothing frustrating, in my case anyway.

The mount is super solid. Shooting the nagant with this requires no special face positioning. Remember..... You need a LONG EYE RELIEF scope to maintain the face position you want

Depends on your scope and the eye relief of it. I bought the Weaver 2.5-8x pistol scope, the eye relief on that I believe is 18-24 inches. I found that sitting directly over the Brass Stacker it was too close to my eye so I bought a ring mount that moved the scope forward another 3 inches. My brother has an NCStar pistol scope that sits directly over the Brass Stacker on low profile rings and he likes it.

It's a great scope for any rifle you can mount it on. It all depends on where the rings are on the rifle. They have to be able to fit the scope tube in front of and behind the adjustment turrets. I have seen scopes mounted with one ring in special circumstances. This scope is strong enough for that. It also has to mount where your eye is the proper distance from the ocular (eyepiece) lens when you have the rifle to your shoulder. This is called eye relief. If it's too far forward you have to crawl up on the stock. Too far back you risk taking a scope in the eye when you pull the trigger. The proper eye relief is critical. It all boils down to the mount-ring setup. But this is a great scope if it fits. It's a great scope for any rifle you can mount it on. It all depends on where the rings are on the rifle.

If your using a scout mount on the Nagant you can't use this one, you will need a extended eye relief scope. If you are mounting scope above the bolt this will work. It's about 4" on the eye relief. Scope works great, mine is mounted on an AR10, so far about 300 rounds and still puts up groups at 600 yards, has not lost zero at all!!

The scope is great, I have used mine weekly since I bought it and the optics are very clear, but the eye relief is tight - three inches at best. I don't think it would work in an intermediate/long eye relief mount. One would have to mount the scope directly over the action in a traditional mount for this scope to work. Even then this scope would not be a fast "mount & shoot" setup on a scout rifle. Hope that helps. cheers

I would say at least 6" eye relief, and you should be able to off set the scope enough to work. The solution is getting the bent bolt then you could get away with a 4" relief.

The mosin nagant is hard to mount a regular scope on due to the straight bolt handle. A scout/pistol scope mounted from the mosin rear sight base is much more convenient than trying to mount in the normal scope position. The short answer: pistol scopes have greater eye relief

I mounted it to my .357 mag blackhawk and it is quite a nice scope. The scope has a long eye relief which works great for hand guns. The mosin nagant normaly has the scope mounted more forward where a longer eye relief is needed. Hope this helped

I have my sks converted to a bull pup style. The eye relief wasn't long enough to use. My original mount it would work on.

I mounted this on forward rail of my Ruger Gunsite and it worked just fine but I put an XS site system rail and moved it back. The eye relief is adequate, I just prefer it farther back.
