I've been looking into getting a 308 covert conversion kit for my DTA for a while now, my concern is that my 3-20 S&B will hang in front of the muzzle and possibly be damaged by the muzzle blast. Does anybody have any experience with this? I also have a honeycomb on the scope, do you think it would offer any protection? Thanks for your time.
 
My 5x25x hangs over the handguard ever so slightly with the 4" sunshade ARD, putting it flush with the end of the brake - no problems so far. It might be a different story if it was a .338LM.
 
What do you guys use the anti reflective devices for? I'm assuming you're not shooting at anything that's going to shoot back and it seems to me it's going to block light transmission. I don't want to hijack the thread. I'm just curious.
