Excellent information as always. Thank you for making this. 1. For the 12 o'clock mount, are you still mounting the scope at 1.54" height? Lower? 2. Since you have a red dot for fast target acquisition, do you still leave the LPVO on 1x or pump it up to max power and leave it there?

Stock recommendation, La Rue makes a CTR cheek riser that reciprocates so the charging handle can move it. Will give you a better cheek weld for that higher mount. You can also buy it as a discounted bundle with a CTR. Ive been running them for years and couldnt be happier with them.

Exactly what I needed, nice comparison. I' leaning towards top-mounted, but I usually zero my red dots at 36-yds. I wonder if this increased height-over-bore throws that off in terms of offsets, and I shoot keep it at a 'flatter' 50yd zero and just practice more holdover.

or you can offset and piggyback, then you get benefits form both. For me I prefer shooting with a 45 from right side, which is also my dominant side. But I found that piggyback dots are more comfortable to shoot when I transition shoulder to the left, plus I also get passive aiming capabilities. So for me I would set up with both. Red dots are pretty light so weight is a non-issue, the only issue is it does get pretty pricy.

Great content. This is the kind of material that I hope gains popularity. Question for you: I've got a Geissele 1.93 mount with a Razor GenII-E on a 12.5" "do all" build. I'm looking to add a Reptilia 12 o'clock ring mount to replace the front ring and mount a RDS for passive aiming under night vision. Do you feel the 1.93 LPVO mounts are too high to then add a 12 o'clock RDS to? I've contemplated moving to a 1.54 mount, but honestly I dig the 1.93. It's a mixed use gun so it's not dedicated for any one role in particular, but I'd love to know at what point you'd consider an optic too high. Thanks and keep up the great content.

Dude, if you run a 1.93 mount and razer gen II, offset red dot is really unnecessary. Prone position w/ 1.93 mount is painful, 1.93mount is fast enough to acquire targets, red dot would not be much faster. If you really worry about speed, Just get yourself a holosun ls117 visible laser for extreme cqb and you'll be fine. However, if you have lower mounts, you need to drop your head down a lot, during that time, you might lose line up with the scope, hence cqb is much harder, and a offset red dot will help you.

They make skinny jeans offset dinosaur mount too. But I agree the Arisaka offset mount looks nicer. I dig that you can do either a 45 or 35 degree offset.

@@KineticConsulting Jon, It's a trick I learned from Clint Smith at Thunder Ranch a few weeks ago. On most ARs with a 100yrd zero, 10-16in barrel and 55gr loads the offset (point of impact vs point of aim) is almost equal to the width of an AR mag, about 2 inches. On a pistol with a red dot, the offset is about 1in at close ranges, or the width of a pistol mag. This hold true even when using a 33 or 45 degree offset, but of course the offset is greater when the back up dot is mounted vertically on a variable scope.

@@Kyle-oe2vs gotcha. You're talking height over bore/mechanical offset. Both of those depends on your optic height, zero distance, and ammunition.

@Heywoodthepeckerwood Ай бұрын
I went with the larger dot for a few reasons. 6 MOA dot is still smaller than the front sight post on a distant target while a bit easier to pick up. If a target is far enough away that a 6moa dot is too big you are likely switching to your scope. I doubt the size of the dot will be a detriment to a precision shot as it’s not it’s intended purpose, and is unlikely to be used as such, again you’d switch to your primary optic. If you have a major astigmatism, a smaller dot may be better so you have a smaller blob to deal with.

So, I recently switched from a 45 offset (arisaka) to a 12 o'clock reptilia on a geissele mount which sports a razor 1-6, all on a 16" rifle. I zero my razor at 50, and when I had my 45 offset (dpp) I also zeroed it at 50. Now with the new mounting position I'm considering zeroing the dpp at 25 instead of 50. Is it a "bad" idea to have separate zero distances? I've seen you mention that you like 50, so is it more personal preference?
@KineticConsulting
@KineticConsulting 3 жыл бұрын
It is personal preference. I usually zero scopes and LPVOs to 100 and dots to 50. It's ballisticly better in my opinion

Been running canted for ?, long time, since a time when all that was available were offset picatinny light mounts, all of the canted cons are, how you say, not a problem problem with the exception of transitions but then again there are ways, train train train and it will work itself out. Top mount? no way, tried it once, hated it, never thought of it again, great video, just subscribed, yeah lots of commas, love the shirt

depends on the mount. The badger ordnance condition 1 scope and offset mounts keeps the red dot in line with the bore assuming you are using an ar pattern rifle. Stuff like scars might get a little wonky because of how much higher the rail is over the barrel
