would this do well on a marlin 30/30? What about the eye relief being too far forward?

I have this on a FAL (.308) It works. Just make sure to put loctite on the bolts holding the scope to the rail mounts. The scope will wobble if you dont. Eye Relief: I do not recommend putting the scope so far forward on your rifle. Also, the laser is junk.

I have mine mounted on a Savage 223 and works fine. I also have a P-223 on a Marlin 30-30 and also works perfect. Both are extraordinary scopes and very clear image. The M-223 should work well with your 270. BDL drops are great for different distances.

I have this scope on a .22 AR. Eye relief is about 3.5-4 inches. I also have the .223 version on a .223 bolt gun. They are good scopes for the money.

Yes this scope has the eye relief. I have this scope on a colt ar 15 works great I have had no problems with it since I had it

It is not a scout scope, so the eye relief is not set up to be mounted too far forward. If you can mount it on the receiver then I think it is a good overall scope. The 7X would work for me at the range of a .308 but if you are stretching your shots out further than 500 yds with any regularity I would consider a more powerful scope.

That would make your front sight be substantially lower, and would only be effective if you were shooting out to 300+ yards. There are smaller quarter inch risers that will help a little bit more - but remember that you want your front and rear sights to be level if you're shooting at a closer range. Any further than your iron sights practical range, then you should be using a scope... Unless you're one of those hardcore guys trying to shoot the grand with iron sights and a rifle chambered in 5.56! +1 for the M&P; 15 Sport!

I've been very pleased with this scope mounted on my ar15. Eye relief hasn't been a problem.

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.

i do believe it will. the rest gives you better eye relief if using a scope also

I'm not sure. It all depends on your eye sight. I would say no because you gun will put the scope to far forward.But if you get a raised mount that lets you bring the scope up and closer to you. It will work fine

Using it on a 7.62 x 51 Ruger 762 with a quick acquisition sight mounted above. Without the additional QA sight it was an issue because the FOV is less than my eyes deal with quickly at less than 150 yds. Its clear, and so far has held up well. At high power setting, you can see a really, really long way.

While I do not own a .45-70 Marlin, I do have this Nikon scope you're looking at mounted on a Mossberg 12 gauge and use slugs in it - which kicks like a mule. The scope has held up perfectly with many boxes of shells fired. I personally would buy this scope for your Marlin - nice gun by the way:)

The SPARC seemed well made so my guess is that it would be fine on a shotgun as long as you don't have astigmatism's in your eyes.

I would think with the proper mounts it would work fine.I have mine mounted to a Marlin 30-30, and it works perfectly.

I'm quite happy with the eye relief and the scope in general. It's a great product for the price. I have it mounted on a Weatherby Vanguard Sub-MOA in .223, which will easily put three holes in the 10 ring from 100 yards that you can cover with a nickel.

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.
