What is the eye relief on this scope? Can it be used as a pistol scope or on my Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle?

It would be too big for a pistol scope it sits too high but it would be fine for a scout rifle. The eye relief is infinite without the magnifier.

Possibly, i wouldnt however. The fish eye effect becomes more apparent the more relief you have.

eye relief is only 3.6 inches, according the description. But I don' t think you need 6 inches eye relief for your Mosin.

I put it on my AR10 and have about 75 rounds through it and no ploblems so, I very happy with it, the eye relief is set up a little different then other Sniper scopes, it focus's by adjusting the front lens but everyone that used it, 4 of us so far have been able to adjust and see just fine. Hope this helps.

I would have little problem using this scope on a light recoiling hunting rifle, but it would not be my first choice. I have only used this scope on a .22. The eye relief is a little short for a rifle with a little "jump" to it. I would prefer a scope with more forgiveness in the eye relief department so I would not be compromised in a quick shot situation. Any of the Leupolds and High end Nikons and Bushnell Elite scopes would be preferable in my opinion. For a varmint rifle or a nice .22, the Muellers are a great value and very clear.

They are correct. remove rear sight, mount this mount on the dovetail. it even comes with the wrenches. And last make sure the scope you buy is a "long eye relief scope" which means you can see through the scope with your eye aprox 13" away. most pistol scopes are this way. so you don't have to put your face up to the lens of the scope. kind regards

This scope does NOT have the extended eye relief necessary for a forward scout mount of the optic. It is designed for traditional rearward mount. At the lowest magnification 1.3X it has an eye relief of 4.1 inches (106 mm) and on maximum magnification 4X eye relief is 3.7 inches (84 mm). For the mount you want to do look at VX*R 1.5-5x33mm Scout FireDot. This scope have an eye relief between 6 and 7.1 inches and is designed for a forward mounting. Good luck and happy hunting :-)

Yes. The scope has plenty of eye relief for the .308 or 7.62x51 mounted on a bolt action style rifle. I have mine mounted to a .308 Remington 700.

unlimited eye relief. I have it mounted on a scout mount on a carbine and it works very well. extremely satisfied with that setup and my Aimpoint in general.

I answered yes by accident, No, this is definitely not a long eye relief scope. Check out the 7x powered one by AIM Sports. Works great, shot my first buck with it over the weekend.

I have used this with an EoTech. Would guess red dots would be Ok, but not a magnified rifle scope, eye relief issues.

I have this scope on my scout rifle and it works fine.... it is clear and will last you some 2 years... it has nice eye relief

It has Burris' "ballistic plex" reticle, with a couple bullet drop graduations built in. I can't remember the exact eye relief, but it is quite generous, something like 2.3-3.3 inches.

The eye relief is the rubber piece that you look through on the scope. It's there to protect you from getting poked in the eye from a high recoil rifle. It can be removed. I don't know how else to mount it properly without a rail.

The scope does not have a long eye relief like a pistol scope would have. Hope that helps.

Hi, Your eye should rest against the "eye piece". There is no eye relief as one rifle scope.

No. Mounted on a Ruger Gunsite Scout. Forward mount. It works very well. Usually set it at 3x or 4x at 100 yards for my old eyes. Nice to be able to dial it up higher for longer distance, out to 300yrds if needed. The advantage of Scout type scopes is getting on the target quickly with both eyes open. There are better options for long range.

Eye Relief (according to the manufacturer's website) is 45mm (1.77"). Eye relief is the distance behind the scope you can have your eye, and still be able to see through it properly, and use it in the intended manner; it is NOT the rubber eye-cup, as some here suggest. This is a rather short distance, and means that it isn't compatible with a rifle that has much of a kick (if you don't want the scope punching you in the eye).
