Leupold CQ/T 1-3x scope help

Recently picked up a Leupold CQ/T 1-3x scope for my DD V7, while it’s a great scope and was a good deal for my I think it will serve my needs just fine. the scope came with a Leuplod quick release mount that does a good job. My questions for everyone the scope sits a little high for me{ it looks like the bottom of the scope is made for a carry handle then its mounted to the qr mount} is there a way to lower the scope? Second question is after mounting and sighting in the scope, if I were to remove it for some reason will the scope still be sighted in after remounting it. Thanks for the help.
