Hog Hunter Rear Iron In Way of Scope
I’m about to purchase another rifle (different brand) where it is well known that a scope can interfere with the rear iron sight, and I’ve done a lot of research in order to eliminate that problem when I get the gun. (When it comes back into stock). However, I never heard a single thing about such a problem with the Hog Hunter, which I bought a couple of months ago. I’ve replaced the stock with a B&C Medalist/Varmint stock and put a Nikon M-308 4-46x42 scope on it and came across the problem of the scope clearing the front sight base by a fraction of an inch. The scope must be removed to flip the front scope cover on and off. See the photo below.
I used Warn QD rings, so removing the scope and retaining zero is a piece of cake, but I did not see this problem coming. These are the medium size rings. What have others done about this?
