It isn't, did I say it was?
Actually I said I assumed it was correct so therefore assumed the scope positioning was a result of poor critical eye relief. That is why I asked.
If indeed that scope has 3 3/4 non critical eye relief then I will say this. The positioning of that scope and the LOP are an anomaly. Does it matter? No it does not.
Now because you opened it up to what it has become I will say it isn't correct. If you need to place a scope with 3.75" of eye relief so that the objective bell approaches the comb of the stock common sense says the LOP is to long. Again, it doesn't matter until the scope can no longer be physically moved rearward. If you prefer to mount the thing backwards by all means. Under the gun? Go ahead.
