I'm removing my EOTech 516 and installing either a Sightron SIIB 3-9x42 or a Vortex Viper 3-9x40. I'll be using either an ADM Recon or Recon-X for the mount. I want the scope centered in the mount, not pushed too far forward or rearward in the mount like you see on some folks' setups. I'll be shooting NTCH unless I'm shooting prone. It's a bit difficult to get that close when prone. Should I be going with the Recon or Recon-X?

Could I get some pictures posted to this thread of the two different mounts with scopes?

Thanks.

Wow, I realized I've been working on this setup for three years now. https://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=9828.

Still looking for new opinions though. Pictures too.

Here's two pics of my two teammates of The Virginia Arms Shooting Team (and two brothers from different mothers). These are pics from last weekends PA State rifle match. I placed 15th (out of 76 shooters in Tactical Optics) not a good day for me.

Brett placed 5th (Tactical Optics). ADM Recon-X 30mm with a Leupold Vari-X III 1.5-5x w/circle dot reticle. Upper is a 16" midlength BCM SS410 1x8 twist, 13" VTAC tube and Surefire muzzle brake, lower is a BCM factory lower with a VLTOR EMOD stock with Geissele SSA trigger.

Never used the non x versions....here are a cpl. recon x's mounted.

Both nxs's are close to being centered in the rings with the bottom being the closest.
