Rifle Scopes Scope clearance question for FN SPR

Re: Scope clearance question for FN SPR

My SPR has mk4 med rings and a mk4 4.5x14x50. If u use the flip caps, they might touch. I just filed the bottom of the front cap and took care of the issue. W/o caps there will be around 1/8-3/16 clearance between the objective and the barrel. Of course if the scope tube is longer it would have more room due to the taper in the barrel. Hope that helps.

with and without lens cap
