How far forward should I mount my scope?
Three to 4 inches is about right. You must focus the eyepiece (ocular lens), and thus the reticle, on every new scope. Point the scope at a uniform surface just a few yards away to see the reticle clearly.
How close can a scope be to the barrel?
Our recommendation is no less than 1/8th of an inch of clearance between the bottom of the objective and the top of the barrel. Your second choice (0.160) [for scope base height] will give you enough clearance.
What tools do I need to mount a scope?

Can you change the eye relief on a scope?
The scope itself does not have an eye relief adjustment that is built in. There are not any buttons or knobs or dials that you can use to adjust the eye relief. The scope eye relief is adjusted by moving the rifle scope either closer to the shooters eye or farther away from the shooters eye.
