So I've got a POF AR10 in 6.5CM w/20" barrel. I just got a used Athlon Cronus 4.5-29x56 that came with a pair of 1" NF ultralight rings.
With those rings, the front of the optic is hard on the rail...so I have to raise it, obviously.
Does tolerance stacking apply to scope mounting? I'd rather not have to buy a set of $200+ rings... It seems to me that if the riser can lock down tight enough that it won't matter, but this is the very first high $ optic (to me, that's defined as over $1000) I've ever owned and don't want to chase my tail if there's something I'm not thinking of/planning for.
Thanks in advance,
Robert
