Hi - I just got my first red dot and tried to install it on my mini. The limbs are visible in the field of view. I have moved the scope rail as far over as I can. Any suggestions? @Nutterbuster @Dman75
 
This is normal and the trade off of using a red dot on the mini. It does not affect the shooting and accuracy if you accept the view it creates.

A scope focuses beyond them and you do not see them, except maybe a slight shadow effect.
 
After using it for awhile, funny I forgot this was an issue. Brain does a good job tuning things out.
 
I will get used to it, just wanted to make sure that I didn't set it up wrong or something. Zeroed it this morning at 25 yards...My longest shot is 30. I think this is going to be a sweet set up!
