I need to mount a lamp on a rifle, I have always located lamps above the 'scope however the rifle always seems to be cumbersome in such a format so I was thinking of to the side or under the front forend however I also seem to remember this leads to issues with glare.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.
If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Re: Best place for a lamp on a rifle?
I use an "figure 8" clamp onto the scope you can then mount the torch at any angle you wish, glare is only a problem if you are using a thick bodied mod and have the torch too close to the barrel centreline.

If you get glare you can cover bottom 3Rd of scope with black insulation tape and it stops it

I use hockey tape as it is matt finished and does not leave a residue.
