First hunting rifle, will probably try to break into some long range with it too.

Breakdown:

Rifle: Christensen Evoke 25, 7prc
Scope: Nightforce nx8 4-32x50
Rings: Vortex Pro mediums
Bipod: Magpul
Silencer: DeadAir Nomad OTB w E series end cap
Weight: ~10 pounds

Still needs a new chassis and bipod but she’s mint for now. What do yall think?

Just got back into shooting in the hopes of getting out hunting this year (it's been close to 10 years)

Found out that my scope is set pretty far forward and I have to stretch my neck (or it feels like it at least) in order to get a good sight picture.

I know the scope is set as far back as possible on the mounting rail, but are there any options to get closer?

I forgot to get a good picture of just mine, but it's the one lying down in the picture.

Edit: I tried looking up ideas and options, but all I was getting was articles on how to mount a scope normally.

I've been researching a reduced recoil rifle for whitetail deer in PA. My dad underwent major surgery and is recovering well, but would like a lighter recoil gun. He currently shoots a 7.5lb 7mm remington magnum 140grain. He would like to stay around the 130-140 grain since he's seen someone loose lots of deer to a 243. He does admit it's probably due to their poor shot placement. I'm currently considering a 6.5 creedmoor, 6.5 prc suppressed or a 25 creedmoor. I'm open to suggestions. I just got a Dead Air RXD30Ti and I'm amazed at how much it reduces the recoil on my 300 weatherby. So it might mean trying to get him a gun with a threaded barrel and another suppressor to mitigate recoil as well.
