What on earth am I doing wrong? lol
I have a Remington 700 with the original bolt-knob still. When the knob is up, The clearance between it and the scope is very minimal, so I'm frequently slamming my thumb when pushing the bolt forward to chamber a round. It's bruising my thumb & is likely quite bad for my scope to get regular abuse.
I can't picture what I could be doing differently to give myself more clearance... I even looked for a bolt-knob that would come down at an angle, but I couldn't find one (I thought that was a thing?).
Thanks for any tips!
