Rifle Scopes NF F1 3.5-15 REAL eye relief?

[9H_Cracka]

Can someone with this scope please take some eye relief measurements and post them here or email them to me?

On NF's site the advertise 3.2" in the specs. On CSTactical, Mike is showing 3.9".

I just yanked an ST-10 off of a heavy recoiling rifle because it provides nowhere near its advertised eye relief of 3.5".

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm about 3.25" to 3.5" from mine.

Thanks - can you do an experiment for me please? Can you slide back to 4" and tell me how badly vignetted the image is? Still usable or borderline?

At 4" you can not get edge to edge clarity, or atleast I can not.
Not usable for me. This is with the optic on 15 power!

When I had mine it didn't have 4 inches of eye relief. More like other posters have stated - about 3.3-3.5
