Slug gun scope gap

[tknuts103]

Hey guys,
I have a Benelli super black eagle 3 and am curious what some of you think about the gap between the bell and rear sight. I could possibly have a gunsmith remove the rear sight but would rather just leave it. These are medium Nightforce rings and already sit pretty high compared to the stock so I'm worried going higher will only give me a bad cheek weld. I can fit a credit card under it or 10 pieces of paper. I'm guessing the barrel wouldn't flex where it meets the action but wanted to see what other people would do. Call it good, have a smith remove the back sight, or go to high rings and be forced to use a cheek pad to help with cheek weld? I appreciate the advice

my scope on my 338 NM is close like that, but at barrel, I can barely get factory cap on.Been like that ten years without issue

As long as there is a gap you are fine
