The title pretty much says it all. I just got my hands on one of these rifles. But I imagine it’s pretty rough on scopes. So I was wondering which scopes have work well, for those of you who own this rifle?
Is there no scope stop on the 135? That should stop it mechanically.

That is why I will need to shorten the length of pull at the stock, so the scope position doesn't need to be so far back.
Yes, had it at 28 in. lbs. The recoil caused movement back & forth from the wear marks I saw on the mount and that apparently caused the mounting nut to shake loose as I kept shooting.

I'm gonna have to shoot mine this weekend, and see if it's still holding up. What scope are you using?

Then you would have a mechanical block that would prevent ring movement.
Also, make sure that you get a scope with a terrific warranty. -Y
