[QUOTE="Seadog, post: 3843421, member: 9018"] Thanks for your response Swampratt You seem to understand where I’m coming from and have some experience with what I am talking about. Several decades ago I thought I would like breaks. Then I used them and discovered I don’t like the side effect of the blast blowing crap back into my face. Lesson learned. I’m not a hunter. My father wasn’t and I never learned to. When I was young I liked fishing but I grew out of that. Wasn’t really any good at it. My firearms are pretty much paper assassins. That’s all they have been used for. Shooting prone or off a bench is how I use my boom sticks for the most part. Unless I’m using a pistol. Then I’ll stand. You brought up something interesting I wasn’t thinking of. I zeroed my rifle with the iron sites. Then I zeroed the scope. Generous eye relief of the scope. How generous are you talking? I have a primary arms 4-14 scope. Eye relief is somewhere in the 2 to 3 inch area. Is that one a type you have in your junk pile? You’re a pretty knowledgeable fella Swampratt. I’ve enjoyed reading your posts in the past. Thanks for chiming in. [/QUOTE]
