Marlin 1895 One Piece Scope Mount NEVER MIND pulled my head out
Mount came in today.
Can be installed two ways.
One has the mount flush with the back of the action, the other way the mount ends about 5/8ths from the end of the action.
With all of the holes in this mount, all four of the holes line up either way.
Any advantages/issues either way?

Well I sat it down and went off to do other things.
Came back and from a distance noted that it stuck out past the front end of the receiver mounted "incorrectly".
Yep, sometimes one can be too . . . TOO close to the forest to see the trees.
With the right (wrong) scope the slight movement forward may be needed.
++++++++++++++++++
When I figure out the scope I want that may make one way better.
AS I read somewhere in all of this, the mount screws at the rear are just long enough to drag on the top of the bolt.
A little file or Dremel work tomorrow will take care of that, it is very close to ok as is.
