    Some can live with the RDS way up there. I tried to like it but just can't. Maybe because 90% of my training is 100 yards and in. What do you like about it? How many rounds have you put through your carbine with the set tp? How many with using the RDS exclusively?

    Mine is new, but I did try a friend's setup and didn't mind the height and not having a cheekweld. My chin touches the buttstock and I pull the buttstock tight into my shoulder.

    Since the DOCTER mount is round the RDS can be mounted anywhere from the 9 to 3 o'clock position if desired. I've seen some folks in competition turning their rifles sideways when using an offset RDS.

    Who makes the Doctor mount, and why wouldn't the mount just use the screw bosses just forward of the elevation knob?

    I've been looking at the Browe and a Trijicon TA02 with some type of mini RDS. Also looking at some 1-6x options. Decisions.

    As far as I know BROWE makes the mount. I think they decided not to use those screws so the RDS could be rotated from 9 to 3 o'clock.

    That's pretty smart...

    Yeah but if you posistion the doctor at 3 o'clock not only is it higher off of the bore, now its off in both windage and elevation.

    Looking at the pics again, the doctor optic can't sit that close to the elevation dial as there are screws on the rear of the unit that need to be able to be acessed. I suppose they could make it sit higher.

    For the life of me I can't find the doctor mount on Browe's website at all.

    Correct. You would have to rezero.

    The mount isn't available yet. If you call or email you could probably get one.

    It's not so much a question of having to re-zero. If the doctor sat at 3 o'clock, and you wanted to have it straight up and down when firing, which you would, your point of impact would be lower and to the right. That would make for some funky holds.

    I think if you mount the RDS optic at 3 or 9 it was intended for you to rotate the rifle sideways just like in shooting competitions.
