but the B&L Elite 3000 (now Bushnell) that I have on my .338 has more than enough eye relief.
=============================================
3.3" is not enough for that rifle. Are you reloading lighter than normal loads for it? Personally, I won't even consider a scope unless it has at least 4" ER.... rainguard or not. I'll buy a spray bottle of anti-fog for my scopes. One bottle lasts upteen years.
