Advice on DMR optics setup

[codym]

Hey guys I have a nice compass lake upper that is very accurate. I have a 4-16 atacr in the highest tier one mount and an xlr tr2 stock/buffer tube set as low as possible and I have to really smash my face down to get decent eye relief and even then it’s not vey good. I would love to make this setup work but I think the only way is a higher mount which I’m not sure exists. Open to other stock suggestions as well. Thanks

I like both of these setups just as well

I may go back to the mag pull stock, it was easier to get behind

the prs lite is a good option also but i took it off because it is so long on the lop

What height is the mount? I like a 1.5” for an ar. B5 cps for the win.

I never go any higher because I like a dot mounted at 12 o'clock

On mine it’s the 1.5. I have high cheek bones or some shit because even on my precision rifles I need at least 1.35 and adjustable combs.

You got a pic of your setup? I’m having a hard time rectifying “I need a high mount AND an adjustable cheek rest…”

 

[codym]

I guess that statement wasn’t worded correctly to be comfortable I need high mounts and an adjustable cheek. On my AR the issue is I can’t get my eye low enough even with a high mount. I will probably end up with the moe mag pull stock, that was better but like the TR2 better. One of my rifle setups for reference

 

[hlee]

Yeah, if you can’t get your cheek low enough, lower the cheek rest. If the cheek rest is already as low as it goes, get a taller mount.

As someone who apparently does have high cheek bones; as set up, I could probably see under the scope on your AR…
