    Stay away from the Nikon Prostaff.
    it seems to be to biggest offender when it comes to getting in the way of the bolt throw.

    I think there was another one somebody had trouble with. Try the search function and it'll show up.

    Of course, you can always do what we all did. Grind the top side of the bolt handle flat so it clears the scope...

    A great deal of the headache in selecting a scope and mounts to go on a rifle is not the determination of specs, but rather figuring out what fits. If I had a scope I wanted to use and found that the objective bell was interfering with the bolt handle, I'd first look to try higher rings and adjust my stock accordingly.

    When I bought an new scope for my Axis an alert salesman informed me that he had been running into this problem mounting scopes and steered me to high mount rings. Good call.
