Savage Mark II scope question

Has anyone mounted a Nikon prostaff rimfire ii scope on a mark ii 22lr ? It's a 3-9x40. My main concern is the bolt will not clear the bell on the scope, all the reviews I've searched had them mounted on autoloaders, the rifle currently has a Simmons 4x32 that I really liked but it's having fogging issues.

Mine easily clears and the scope is slammed down just above the barrel...

I don't have the Nikon but my scope is bigger than the Nikon and I have no issues at all.

There is something bad wrong somewhere if you are having that issue.

Post up a pic and let's see if we can figure it out.

I don't think he has a problem, but is rather trying to avoid one. And now that I am not replying from a cell phone at 0330 in the sleepless morning, here is a picture that is worth at least 1 word...
