Sight picture with suppressor

[Oncorhynchus]

Just bought and installed my first suppressor. Silencer Co Scythe Ti on a Tikka T3X 30-06, Maven 1.2. Under low power the can obstructs about 1/3 of the bottom sight picture. Other than remounting scope with a rail and high rings I’m not too sure what the best solution is, or just roll with it as is.

What’s a common sight picture/obstruction when viewed under low magnification?

I would just roll with it. A long barrel + low magnification + low mount = obstructed view. If it bothers you, I would put the scope up higher but I wouldn't sacrifice my cheek weld/comfort on the stock to do it.

Looks normal to me.

Not sure if this is your first rodeo with a suppressor but mirage will become an issue at some point.
A decent suppressor sleeve was necessary for me.

Thanks for the tip. First suppressor but this is definitely on my radar!
