    Posted: December/23/2008 at 19:08
I just picked up my new Rem. Model 7.  I had the gunshop mount my Swaro. z6 on it.  The bolt barely, and I mean BARELY clears the scope.  In fact, if I try, I can make it rub the rubber eye-piece....but most of the time it slides past...by a hair.
 
Is this a big deal?  It kinda frets me.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

biggest problem is finger clearance and operating the bolt correctly, if your ok with that , there are many guns out there with this problem--- ask Ed.

I've got (had) a 7 in .260 IMP. with a Swaro on it that was too close too.  If I am calm and shooting it off the bench its no big deal but in a hunting situation it is a big deal.  I have to really think about it and it bothers me because it is something I should not have to think about.
 
I solved the problem by giving it to my wife.

I saw it the same way.
 
As for giving it to the better-half....I'm still trying to break her from asking "did you catch anything" when I get back from deer hunting.  But she's tryin'Smile

Just tell her you caught one, but he keeps trying to gore you with his horns when you try to get him out, and ask if she will help you. That should do it.
