I'm with Hawg, I think I would like more eye relief on something as hard kicking as a 45-70 Rolling Block. Did you mount the scope temporarily to check on that?

Hey MK, the range day pics show the final location for the brass scope , I have about 4" eye relief. Have not had an issue so far.

I'd like to get one of those, bid on one a couple of month's back but the other guy wanted it a lot more than me.

Mine is not marked as to maker, only Japan. I believe Tasco and Hakko both made scopes like this.
