Why bolt hits scope mount on German m98 mauser?

The bolt hitting the scope mount on a German M98 Mauser typically occurs due to improper alignment or mounting of the scope. This can happen if the scope mounts are too high or if the scope's design interferes with the bolt's travel. Additionally, using aftermarket or incompatible mounts without considering the bolt's clearance can also lead to this issue. Ensuring proper mounting and alignment can prevent the bolt from making contact with the scope.
