As long as its not touching you will be ok. The only problem might be with a cover or lens cap fitting over the bell.

If that is about 2mm from barrel without scope cover I think to close. Just a guess but you have 1" rings and barrel is a little heavier and larger than say a stock TRG barrel.

I am dealing with same problem.

Also assuming objective without cover is 56mm

If you can get a good, repeatable cheek-weld it will be fine. If you can't, then try next size up.

Looks good to me. I've got a couple closer than that with no issues.
