What is the eye relief on this scope? I want to use it as a scout scope on a mosin nagant.

Eye relief on the Redfield is 3 to about 4.5 inches. It is a scope that needs to be mounted over the bolt and action and requires installation of a mount. I have scopes on two Mosins. The rifle with a Redfield scope uses an ATI mount. This also requires a bolt modification. On the other rifle, I installed a Rock Solid mount and purchased a used Burris Scout Scope. The scout scope is good for quick target acquisition and maybe 50 yard range. Many people use a NCStar Pistolero, long eye relief scope on their 91/30s. A properly mounted Redfield will shoot 100 yards well all day long.

You just have to account for pretty short eye relief, and its somewhat low ( good for AKs), otherwise great scope, holds perfect zero with 7.62x39

I would have little problem using this scope on a light recoiling hunting rifle, but it would not be my first choice. I have only used this scope on a .22. The eye relief is a little short for a rifle with a little "jump" to it. I would prefer a scope with more forgiveness in the eye relief department so I would not be compromised in a quick shot situation. Any of the Leupolds and High end Nikons and Bushnell Elite scopes would be preferable in my opinion. For a varmint rifle or a nice .22, the Muellers are a great value and very clear.

It's for a 32 mm scope. I have an AIM long eye relief scope used on a Mosin Nagant 91/30. The frame is solid.

The eye relief is the rubber piece that you look through on the scope. It's there to protect you from getting poked in the eye from a high recoil rifle. It can be removed. I don't know how else to mount it properly without a rail.

It's a great scope for any rifle you can mount it on. It all depends on where the rings are on the rifle. They have to be able to fit the scope tube in front of and behind the adjustment turrets. I have seen scopes mounted with one ring in special circumstances. This scope is strong enough for that. It also has to mount where your eye is the proper distance from the ocular (eyepiece) lens when you have the rifle to your shoulder. This is called eye relief. If it's too far forward you have to crawl up on the stock. Too far back you risk taking a scope in the eye when you pull the trigger. The proper eye relief is critical. It all boils down to the mount-ring setup. But this is a great scope if it fits. It's a great scope for any rifle you can mount it on. It all depends on where the rings are on the rifle.

To whom it may concern. Do not buy this scope. Despite what I said in other reviews I have come to find this thing to be a POS. It broke very soon after a few rounds. I sent it back and they replaced it and that one broke as well. You will need to spend at least $140 to get a long eye relief scope that will stand up to the Mosin. Hope this helps.Doc

I've been very pleased with this scope mounted on my ar15. Eye relief hasn't been a problem.

I would say the eye relief is ideal at 10-18 inches and it makes this scope a good choice for forward mounting on a rifle like an SKS or M1A. Scope is rather large for a pistol, it's almost the same size as a standard rifle scope.

Yes this scope has the eye relief. I have this scope on a colt ar 15 works great I have had no problems with it since I had it

It depends on what you consider being a long eye relief scope as this scope will give eye relief for approximately four inches when you adjust the eye relief at the rear of the scope. I hope this helps you, Brian.

Hi Jim: I have a Mosin Nagant 7.62x54r Rifle compared to your rifle it is a cannon. The scope is Rock solid on my rifle and it will on yours too. Make sure that you have a good solid scope mount base and good rings choose some rings that aren't too high from the receiver. Tighten everything good after you adjusted for proper eye relief and you should have no problems. Have fun at the range Wayne

I have had good success on paper at 300 yds on my 308Win Scout Rifle. This has been a great value for my application. I don't know enough about the Mosin Nagant to give advice on the mount. I can say the scope can handle the recoil on the MN.

TA11H-308. This is the best scope for eye relief of all the ACOGs, that's the reason I chose it. If you go to Trijicon's web sight they list the eye relief as 2.39 inches, which is outstanding. The field of view is also 5.5 degrees so you can actually shoot with both eyes open (the Bindon Aiming Concept)

I have it mounted on an AR-15 and have it set for approximately 2 to 3 inch relief. Good scope but not appropriate for a hand gun.

I do not recommend this scope, I sent it back, wouldn't work in a Mosin, very poor long relief scope.
