Does anyone own the new Weaver RV4 scope?  If so, could you measure the outside diameter of the eyepiece end?  So far the only scope I have found that is skinny enough to work on my Ruger M77/22 with medium rings, is a Leupold 4x compact.  And it, BARELY clears the bolt handle.  By about a 16th of an inch.  The Weaver looks skinny enough, but considering the tiny amount of space I have to work with, I'd like a measurement before I buy it.  Weaver is hopeless at getting this information from them.

I think it is the same as the RV7 which is 36mm. Can't swear to it tho!

Thanks, those 2 are the same.  The Leupold is 1.36 inch.  That means the Weaver is 25/1000's fatter on each radius and should work.  For $100 I am going to give it a try.
