I bought an RRA Elite Carry and need to get some information on mounting a scope. How do I determine the height to mount the scope?

I have a fixed front sight and I read on another thread this would not effect the vision through the scope. Is this true?

A high power scope will burn through the front sight, I believe anything over 4 power you will not see anything. As for rings, it depends on the objective lense size.

For example, my rings are extra high and I will probably replace them with high rings to get my cheek weld down since I have the room. The OBJ lense on this one is 42MM.

That's a great looking set-up. Thanks for the information - my scope is also going to have 42 mm OBJ lenses so I guess I should also get high rings.

Thank you. I think the brand of the rings might have something to do with it too but scope rings is my weak point

someone smarter than me might need to step in and help.
