How are people mounting a Charlie TARAC Mk8 or Nightforce Wedge if you don't have picatinny rail on top of your handguard? None of my rifles have picatinny rail on top out past the end of the scope, but it seems necessary to mount a Charlie Mk8 or Nightforce Wedge. Are there any solutions other than buying a new chassis?

What are your rifles mounted in? Can’t tell you ideas without knowing that

375 Cheytac is in a Mirage ULR chassis
338 Lapua is in a MasterPiece Arms chassis
Let's just start off with those two

Also just asking in general to see what other people are doing for a solution if they have same problem but don't necessarily have the same equipment I do.

Well fwd pic rail is pretty much mandatory. I was just thinking depending on what u have there could be some aftermarket solutions
 
Mirage ULR makes 18" pic rails

We run the Charlie mounted direct to the scope. It won't require any rails for mounting.

I am talking about the Charlie TARAC Mk8 and is only available as rail mount. It is not available for scope mounting as per TACOM HQ. If you are talking about the original Charlie TARAC, then yes it can be mounted to the scope but that is not the version of the device I am asking about.
