Ruger No. 1 Scope Fitment and Eye Relief

[USAF Ret]

Have you shot the rifle with the newly installed scope? It could be optical illusion, but the scope seems pointing downward. It may shoot too high.

I can see how hard the job is to install a scope on that rifle. Good you eventually did it. Hope it works out for you. You may also need a cheek riser on the stock for proper cheek weld.

Optical illusion. It is pointed downward in the rest. Good point on shooting it first.

I have a Hornady buttstock shell holder that raises the cheek weld, but right now it is a good line of sight for me. Medium mounts had it too low.

The stock recoil pad feels like a brick.
