Nightforce unimount ring height and cheek weld question
Plan to get a Nightforce 30mm unimount for a scope that has the following specs. The 20 MOA 30mm Nightforce mounts come in approx heights of 1.125, 1.375, and 1.5. Need to figure out what consequences the height that I need will have on my cheek weld on the stock. This rifle will be a 6.5 Grendel with 18" precision barrel, shooting out to intermediate ranges up to 800y.
Scope: 2.5-10x42mm
Objective OD (with Butler scope covers): 54.4
OAL: 13.75"
Minimum required ring height for the above OD: 1.07"
I want to run a folding rear BUIS that has a low profile when stowed, such as Bobro Lowrider (0.2"), or Troy folding dioptic (0.46"). Normally I like scopes mounted low, shoot nose-to-ch, and will not use offset BUIS on this rifle.
Q: If I go with one of the higher mounts in order to fit a folding rear BUIS under it (1.375" or 1.5"), will I run into issues getting a solid low cheek weld on a standard AR buttstock? If so, does that mean my only option (besides offset buis) is get a stock with adjustable comb height?
