Mr. Benelli, thanks for the info on the scope rings. If that's the problem, then I can correct it easily enough. The only problem is that the bullet camera would extend back pretty far and make putting my cheek on the stock a bit cumbersome, if at all. As to finger width apart, I had to set them to accommodate the picatinny mount on the rifle, so had little choice with that.
Cozwurth (David), I have hunted before near Franklin, many years ago while in the military, stationed at Norfolk. I did some squirrel hunting over there on a pheasant / game bird preserve. Small world.
You will find in most cases, that the .223 is just too much gun for fox, that is if you are saving the skins. Otherwise it's perfect.
Do you have a lot of coyotes in that area?
