Scopes with short eye relief?

[john444334]

I am trying to put together a compact 22lr for rabbits out of the land rover window, by using a scope with a short eye relief, I am hoping to it will make thing a little less awkward form me.

I have had a little look around but can't find anything useful, It does not have to be anything fancy just do the job.


Anyone know of a scope with short eye relief?

Why not try a reflex / red dot sight?

Nice idea from Eric - how short is short eye relief and are you wanting fixed mag 4x or similar or a small 3-9x40 or similar?

Not trying to sound unhelpful but is it such a problem? There has to be a bit of stock and some barrel so pretty well any scope, except the super long relief pistol or long relief magnum scopes should do it.

one of the MTC scopes has almost zero eye relief

Shortest I have come across is a Meopta 4x32, wish I had had it when I wanted to scope a CZ452 Scout.

I believe all Meoptas are on the short side. The 4X32 is only just over 3". A 6X42 is only 3 1/2". The cheaper Meoptas are steel bodied, so heavy. But good glass for the money. You should get a S/H 6X42 fr £100-150. Avoid Leupolds which tend to have long relief.
