Blood in the eye brow
Rich:
I have been working on this problem ever since I had my 1885 Browning 45-70 freebored.
No solution yet short of a long eye relief pistol scope.
To answer your question, something in the range of 4" I would think. That should leave 2+" between the eye brow and the scope.
If you find something that doesn't cost more then double the cost of the gun let me know.
