Best way to prevent scope cut from recoil?
I'm REALLY wanting to build a custom rifle in either .300 Win. Mag. or .300 Rem. Ultra Mag.
The actual "recoil" from a gun doesn't bother me much. .270, .30-06, 7mm. Rem. Mag. are no problem. 12 ga. 3 1/2" loads are no problem.
I just worry (maybe too much) about in the heat of the moment getting too close to the scope on a heavier recoiling rifle. For some reason I've always been leary about getting scope cut.
Do you folks have any tips for me to help decrease or eliminate my chances of catching my Leupold over my eye?
Thanks
