With Aimpoints I zero the irons and then zero the optic. The optic on the rifle can be shot by looking over the irons and putting the reticle where you want the bullet to go (faster) or going lower on the stock and lining it up in the lower 1/3 (slower).
I like it higher because it's faster.
Some competition guys (like Daniel Horner and Ernest Langdon) run the very tall LaRue SPR scope mounts with S&B Short Dot scopes (the ones for mounting behind PEQ-2s) because they're a little faster than the standard 1.5s or SPR-Es because you don't have to get as low on the stock.
