ORIGINAL: skeeter 7MM

Triple 7, isn't that the key? Some don't find that eye relief is really as much a problem as others when considering a scope! As mentioned I had a similar eye relief on a 300 wby. and it never caused me any concern. Now my 7mm rem mag has 3.5 fixed eye relief topping it (Zeiss Conquest) and nor has it even come close( the loads are pretty much max). I think most will agree or find these 2 CF recoil more than most ML loads. Unless you find ER to be a problem I think personally much more is made out of the value published than needed in many cases. Of course if you are one who finds ER important than it may play more into your decision but please do not assume we are all the same. Simply said if you have noticed problems in the past with close to or eyebrow touching(that isn't the result of poor shooting technique), then make it a priority. For those who have not then it is less of a concern. Especially a ML! Just MO.
