Can anyone with hands on with the Premier Heritage 1.1-8x give advice on an AR mount?
I can read the specs and make an educated guess, but I would really like to hear first hand accounts of what worked, what didn't, and what you would change.
Please include description of your application and shooting style.

I expect that there will be very few responses, but that's ok.

Thanks all.

I've been looking at that scope too. Going by the specs there's only 4 inches of room between the conning tower and power ring. Neither the Larue or American Defense traditional mounts will fit in that space (like the mount above). One of the LT or ADM EER mounts should be able to throw it out far enough to be useable. But it looks like two traditional 34mm rings would do the job too.

I'd either grab some leupold mk4 34mm rings or these http://americanrifle.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=4&idcategory=2 if you didn't need something QD.

Here are the in depth scope measurements from the manufacturer.
