I feel like Steve is almost a part of the family I've been watching him with my dad since I was a little kid I'm 22 now. Especially thanks for your auto 5 disassembly video it helped me clean and restore mine and clean it at the end of every season.
Is there such a thing as too much eye relief? I am new to shooting, & I prefer shooting with both of my eyes open with iron sights, & I was thinking of getting Vortex Crossfire II Scout scope but I was wondering if there would any disadvantage to it if I were to mount where a regular scope would go?
I'm having issues with getting enough eye relief on my 30.06 I have the scope all the way to me and I still have issues with shadowing I'm thinking a shorter stock or cantilever rings advice the scope is 3-9x50
For many years I have heard hunters say they want more eye relief for their rifles. Right around 6" (no less than 5" at max magnification) would be ideal. Yet manufacturers keep ignoring what hunters really want. Why is this? Manufacturers seem to be getting away with not giving us what we want because there is no one that has made a popular scope model like a 3x9x40 in a 6" eye relief (or about any other model for that matter). I have even read some articles about it in the past complaining about this. It's very frustrating.
I a slow learner everything needs too be explain and shown sometimes I catch on but most of the time I'm a learner you can't be taught if you don't paid attention with me the instructor and myself in & Out at the range would be great Or someone whom I can become Friends and love too teach their Skills on to me, Thank you for you Video I still have a lot of learning too do.
I have a bushnell elite 4500. The eye relief is something like 3 inches. Its on a browning x bolt and i find i have to move my head forward almost to the forward edge of the comb. The scope is as far back as it will go. Is there anything else in thar price range with the same quality (made actually in japan) that has better eye relief?
The handgun scope used in our video is an older model that is no longer available. Here are the current handgun scope offerings we have from Leupold. bit.ly/2hAzED6 & bit.ly/2gOnidE
looking for a scout scope to put on a 444 Marlin rifle want to get it about 6" or more but not too far from my eye just want low power for hunting but may be go to 7 for sighting it in. So far all I can find is the Bushnell scout 2-7 x 36 7.9" or eye relief . How close could I put my eye or will I be stuck with 7.9" Don't want to spend to much as I do not know weather I will like it or not.

Much appreciated videos. Really enjoy the absence of constant marketing. Great approach and quality info.
You got it Douglas! Thank you for watching!
I know nothing more about eye relief than I did before I started watching this video, but thanks for explaining differences in scopes.
The distance between your eye and the scope. I learned that from this video.
So eye relief is essentially just how fare away from your face the scope is, right?
good stuff
Man you get around!
Amazing video. Definitely helped me decide I wanted a scout scope.
Awesome help and clearly explained. Thanks, I’m not sure why anyone has disliked your video.
Been curious about handgun scopes. Thanks, very informative.
Love this channel. High quality videos, I've been looking at getting a mosin nagant, and these have helped me a lot!
Thank you for being concise.
Thanks for the information. So much terminology that doesn't get explained.
New to scopes. This video helps tons!👍thank you!
I've just put the Vortex Crossfire II Scout scope on front rail of my SKS with Tapco stock. AMAZING!
Hi! I want to do the same on my k98 for hunting, what model do you mean or you think it's the best precisely?
Thanks!

What is “eye box” and how does it differ fro eye relief? What is their relation during scope setup ?
I wish manufacturers would realize there is a market for red dots that have an adjustable diopter.
Very nice tutorial video , thank you
I was basically trying to understand that for astronomical observation but it'll do, thanks a lot ;)

I've got one of them scars as well. Live and learn.
So what if my eye is further away from the given eye relief but I can still see the cross hair. Am I gonna miss the target ?
Good info
Excellent Tutorial.
I am farsighted I cannot relax my eyes without reading glasses but I do se clear in the distance.
Great vid
What is the highest powered long eye relief scope possible? Seems like 7 or 9 powered is possible

Leupold fx 4x28 (hand gun scope) on a Ruger Mini 14? Will that work for 100-200yd plinking?

Can you use a handgun scope on Springfield m14 scout rifle fix2 power?
