[QUOTE="7magcreedmoor, post: 986074, member: 48559"] Is there a mark on the turret from the cases hitting it? I am not familiar with that model rifle, but would suggest higher rings if you are certain of the interference (you use the word "seems" in your post). Perhaps an experiment: loosen the rings and rotate the scope counterclockwise as far as you can, fire a couple rounds to see if the cases are definitely striking the turret, or just remove the scope for the same experiment. If the rifle ejects without the scope/turret present, switching to higher rings and adding/raising a cheekpiece for proper eye alignment may solve your problem. On the other hand, if it still fails to eject, you know to pursue a mechanical problem. [/QUOTE]
