I just finished mounting a new scope on my Howa 1500 in .223. I used medium height Burris Signature Z-Rings. The scope has a 44mm objective. The height is perfect for me as I have good cheek weld when lined up.
My concern is that the clearance between the barrel and the scope's objective bell is .006 inches. I don't think the barrel will ever heat up enough to cause a problem, but I thought I better ask you guys. Thoughts?
