Anyone know the distance from the bottom of scope body to the bottom of the flat under the elevation and windage turrets?

I am trying to see what height blaser mount I would need to mount one of these.

Edit: @Formidilosus you would probably be in the best position to answer this.

Windage Turret length alone is worth the $500 price increase. Having your brass eject and then bounce off the windage and go back into your chamber while reloading for a second shot is real neat. 0/10 Don't recommend

I’ve never had any of my brass hit my SWFA turrets.

Great. I don't recommend it

That windage hook disguised as a turret is my single biggest beef with the SWFA 6x MQ Gen2.

S2H/ZT have a potential opportunity with an affordable next-gen fixed mag (think 7x50mm or 8x56mm).

It’s pretty common with short rounds in actions with a high ejection angle like Sauers, it is the fault of the action but it really causes problems.

mounting height is another contributor as well as ejection angle as already mentioned by others. Never had it happen with 223 size cases, But Creed/08 size yes. Happen at the range no big whoop, follow up shot on an animal it sucks.

I try to mount my scopes as low as possible. I have them on Remington Model Sevens and Tikka t3x lites. It must not affect those.

My maven does it if the windage cap is on with um mediums and lows

What rifle? My Tikkas have no issues with RS1.2 or SWFA scopes. My Sako 85 did it with low optilocs with a Weaver K4 (which almost doesn't have turrets). As the K4 is set and forget, I flipped it so windage became elevation.

If a Tikka, perhaps scope position over the action and I just got lucky.

Tikka 6.5

Same:
Tikka 6.5 with a low mounted Creedo
Browning Xbolt 7rm low scope

Never:
Tikka 22-250
Savage 300wm

My T3 6.5 PRC does it frequently with a Bushnell LRHS in UM lows as well unless I remove the windage cap.
