Try moving your optic forward, you might find it help quite a bit.

It looks good.

How many notches do you think? I just slapped it all togeather on my lunch break when the barrel came in, so i haven't toyed with it yet. How do you feel about a half inch riser as well? To drop the buis into the lower third of the field of vision.

Nice rifle.

okay, cool, got the rest of my stuff on the way. I have a sling mount for the forend so i have a 3 point option. I've got the offset mount on the way and a half inch riser.

Brightflashlights in the industry forum is an accessory god. All the lighting equipment YHM and magpul gear is from him. saved me hundreds.

Here is a picture of mine, I wouldn't want it any further back than it is in this pic. I would mount mine more forward, but it is a duty weapon, and farther forward interferes with my vehicle mount lock assembly.

If you try it, I think you will find it aids in keeping both eyes open while shooting. There is less tendency to use it like a scope when it is further forward.
