AR scope mount?

[bigmuskie]

Here's a link to my build. It should give you some of an idea on what ring height to go with. I have no experience with the Burris P.E.P.R., but if these guys swear by them, they can't be half bad then.

Also, I have a DNZ mount on my .17 bolt gun and they're great.

It is.

I have the P.E.P.R on my 6.8 it works good, I have no experience with any other brand.

My guess is a combination of both cheek weld and clearance for the objective should be considered when choosing an scope mount.

Wished you could make it to the build GTG so you can see the fruits of your labor in person. It's the nicest AR rifle I've built yet.

Most AR mounts are higher because of how low you have to get your cheek/head to use low mounts on an AR.

What the fuck are you trying to say here?

You want the scope as close to bore axis as possible.

The only reasons to raise it are objective clearance, and the ability to reach the charging handle.

I'm going to try and get down with work early so I can come by.

I can put a strip of rail on top. That way i'll have my 3x9 on the bottom and. A red dot on top.

Please... stop.

A lot of AR mounts are throw mounts, you'll see them cant the mount arms forward, the idea is to keep the rear element in front of the charging handle. Like mentioned you want the scope tube as low as possible. For long distances you can buy canted bases. Mine is a custom larue 20moa base.



Just do your math on your tube/objective size and you can find just the right height. Keep at least a 1/8" gap to allow for scope whip.

Much better. Now just get a cheap 45* rail adapter and put it on the receiver end of your quad/octo-rail that way you don't have a 4" difference in POA-POI at the muzzle.

hey i like ur idea. ima get that thanks,

You may want to mock up your rig and make sure that your mount will clear, but if it's going on a quad rail, it can always go on the 3-9 o'clock rails if it won't clear the scope objective or your mount on the 12 o'clock rail.

I'll make room

I'll buy you one if I can burn that stupid magwell grip at the altar of the gun gods.
