How high does this mount raise the scope?

Approx. 1.5." When using my red dot, it co-witnesses the front sight at the lower 1/3 of the view. I believe this is what you are maybe concerned about...?

It depends on the size of your optic. The bottom of the mounting area of my scope is about an inch off the top of the rail, center is about 1.5 inches. The important part is the width of your lenses/lens housing and if you have a folding rear iron sight on your rifle (if it is an AR or other tactical type rifle). I have an A2 fixed front sight and although by looking at it, it would seem it should obstruct view through the scope, I cannot see a trace of it regardless of magnification.

I had to buy a riser to lift the optic up a little, out of the box I had to tilt my head down to low for comfort. I don't know the actual height but it is more comfortable for quicker sight field. I believe it was a medium rise.

I used this riser to give me an extra half inch that i needed for my scope which worked out perfect for me. I doubt it will be to tall for you, it all depends on how much elevation you need to clear your front sight for your red dot. For a scope on the other hand , that all depends on how your specific cheekweld is in relation to how high you need your scope to sit. Hope this helps.

The scope is about 2-1/4" in diameter so plan your mount to give a bit more.

It is a bit short of 6 inches. I have adjustable scope mounts so it doesn't bother me.

It will but you will have to buy a riser/spacer for the rail and raise the scope up higher

Should be high enough with this riser. It put my scope up enough to see over my AR15 front sight. It is strong but lite and easy to put on and off.

1inch and a half from base to reticle depending on witch mode you have it on you can adjust pretty high

Depends a lot on the height of the scope rings you use. Generally the medium riser is sufficient, assuming you have a standard rail on your rifle.

I think I mounted it with normal height rings. It did not need anything special on my cz455 .17 hmr with 3/8 dovetail

Yes this will raise it 1" higher. I have a 50mm scope and had to buy this for the same reason and also lower the co-witness of the a2 front sight

I mounted a Nikon p223 with offset rings mounted so they extended to the rear to bring the scope back far enough for my eye relief. Height wasn't an issue for me. The mount was long enough that I added a second 45' mount with a halligraphic dot ahead and to the right of the scope for a short range sight. Just roll the rifle counter clockwise and the scope goes away and the sight comes up. Works well.

I dont believe it is high enough this sight's front post tip sits about 1 3/4 from my rail you might have to use a rail riser

i couldnt give you an exact number, but if your using it for a scout rifle, Mosin Nagant, or other forward mounting it works great. when i found it i was looking for pistol scopes which are typically in excess of 5 inches or more. hope this helps.

Don't know about a scope, but I used it on my S&W-AR15;/22 to mount my red dot sight. The upper receiver is made of poly and this poly riser mount worked perfectly and looks very good. It raised my red dot enough to make it useful......before and without it, the red dot was much too low on the upper to be very useful. The red dot sight is now in perfect position. In my situation, I am very satisfied with this product. Ooops......I order several of these risers some aluminum and some poly.......this happens to be aluminum, and it has the same quality and did the same job.

I believe that it is 1/4 moa. The sight height on my rifle with that mount is 2.625 inches.

The actual height above bore not sure, but it worked well with my colt m4 with a fixed front A2 sight. It blurs out the front sight, I didn't notice it hardly at all. That was just me. When you look through any sight you typically look past the end of the barrel anyways.
