If you can slide a peice of paper [like from your printer] through the gap with out it binding you should be alright if not I would use higher scope mounts. Lee

I used medium heights on my Black Diamond XR andthe scope is no where near thebarrel. Perhaps the scope you put on has a large front bell. Like Lemoyne said, if you can slip a dollar bill between the scope and the barrel, you are still going to be all right. They are an old technology rifle but they sure are good shooters.
