I guess I do, too! I have lived here for a little over 33 years now. Pretty good town. Too darn many cars! I work for the same place I served enlisted as a civil servant. I still wanted to serve. My country has been good to me, and I want to return the devotion. Regardless of what you see on TV these days we are still great! Thanks for all of your welcomes and well wishes!

Thank you all! I am going to try what you've suggested. I am not new to shooting at all, but not well-versed on the black rifles. I shot one in Basic Training and then again qualifying for mobility purposes, but that was many years ago., Just got back into them the past couple of years. Love the 7.62x39 Windham so much that I decided on the Windham for my .308. Awesome quality rifles! I think I am going to buy a rail I saw online that will raise the scope height by .83" and hopefully that will do it. I already have some cheek risers for the standard stock. Hopefully these things will do the trick, but regardless, I will report back! Again, thank you for your help and advice! Dave

Just wondering if maybe the stool at the range was too high for me, as I was shooting from the sitting position. Could be. I will have to try different things. One thing is for sure, that old boy has some recoil!

Hello all! First post. Please bear with me. I have a Sig M400 5.56x45, and a Windham 7.62x39. I finally took the plunge and bought a Windham 308. I got all of my accessories to make it mine (quad-rail, foregrip, etc.), and a Nikon ProStaff 3-9X40 BDC scope. I took it out a week ago. Got a nice big bruise on my cheek. I had to roll my head sideways trying to get a good sight picture on it, and it bit me good. Several times. I am thinking my scope may be mounted too low. The eyepiece is flush with the charging handle to the rear, so I may even have it mounted incorrectly to the rear. I just don't know. I am trying to figure it out, but this is my first relatively high magnification scope, and I want to make sure I don't keep throwing money at mounts, etc. if they are not the root of the problem. I am hoping that those of you on this board with more experience can show me the light! I bow to your experience! Regards, OldSarge
