Are you able to get close enough to get a full FOV with that without getting kissed? I picked up a Striker 243 barrel and was thinking of getting it braked to put a rifle scope on it.
Lately you`ve been having all the fun. Good for you....

No, if you have full field of view you will get bumped. I usuall find the charlie on a medium power, around 14X with a full field of view. That's about 3" of eye relief. Get the cross hairs solid on the chuck then dial it up to desired or full power. Then draw my head back about another 5 inches. The FOV closes in to about a nickle size or 1/2 the size of the occular bell. Then squeeze off the shot.

I think if you had a 16" heavy taper barrel and a break you could possibly have full FOV with a rifle scope and not have face/scope contact.
It took a little to get use to the 1/2 FOV but now it's second nature and works well for me.
