Recently had an Athlon 6-24x50 on this Winchester Mode 70 for load development. The gun proved to be very impressive, so I am wanting to put a 4-32 NX8 on it. The problem is I can see the end of the barrel in the bottom of the reticle. I have never had this issue, and have mounted quite a few scopes. To get the scope elevated to the point where the barrel would not be in the reticle the scope would have to be farther back and significantly higher than I would want it. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
