I currently have a Vortex 3x15x44 that I plan on mounting to my 20" PA10 with a Magpul ACS stock. I placed the scope ontop of 1" blocks HDPE (plastic) with the plastic touching the tubes. If I take my head and place onto the stock with a cheek weld, the eye relief and view is pretty much perfect... The objective has 1" clearance from contacting the rail.. I'm good in that aspect. According to diagrams on measuring ring height, if I measure the base to the centerline( middle of the scope tube) it appears to be around 1.5". ( I measured from the rail to center of the tube" maybe it should be 1" versus 1.5 ?? Maybe I'm doing it wrong?
The question.. Which mounts or rings are recommended? Naturally, the Vortex extended 20 MOA cantilever comes to mind. I was also eyeballing for the Burris XTR sig rings which have internal MOA shims which are pretty neat.
Second question.. my scope has 75 MOA of adjustment ( 37 up and 37 down?) that would be pretty close to maxing out 900 according to a chart. Do I need or want a 20 MOA base? Most will say yes..
Cheers!
