Veyron 6-24x44 issues

[Barzor]

Also asking in other forums as well......

Great scope but eye relief is very close. I had to move scope all the way back of my pic rail and use only one ring to hold the scope,

Is this OK? Any ideas for proper mount?

Gun only used for bench and its only tikka 22.

Get a cantilever mount and use it backwards

I like that idea, just make sure that with mounting it reversed it doesn't interfere with feeding it.

I will try cantilever, any ideas of which can fit best. I don't want to end up buying so many that don't fit.

Does anybody know where I can get similar mounts like the ones for immersive optics??? or maybe the ones for the cheap 30mm red dots.

You'll need to do some research but something that clamps in the front and rear and not down the full length would be best. If it clamps full length you may have ejection port issues. They do make two piece cantilever mounts as well. That will likely be your best bet.

Thank you

Barzor,
Monstrum Offset Cantilever for Picatinny (1" diameter) from Amazon in February 2022.

 

[Bullpupone]

I like that

Thanks everybody for the suggestions. I’m going with one piece adjustable cantilever. However,
Is there any harm of using that thick 3 screw ring such as the one I put on the picture. With the way it is mounted on the middle of scope it seems very stable. Also the front lens is not touching the barrel or rail, it’s low enough.
I have a feeling even if I get the cantilever it will not be enough.

Basically, is it ok to use scope with one ring?

I’d replace the scope for one with a more forgiving eye relief.

I use West Hunter cantilever mounts on my 3 P35s. They work well and are inexpensive.

I would not use the scope with only one ring. I don't think it is enough support to be rigid enough or robust enough to withstand normal handling.

Is it possible you need a longer length of pull on the rifle? I'm 6'2" with long arms and I normally need to lengthen the length of pull with a spacer or new butt pad go get the gun to fit. When the length of pull is right, you should be able to lay the butt of the gun along your forearm with the butt pad right at your elbow with your finger on the trigger.
