Please help: Budget Rifle Scope Mounts

Got a Bushnell Elite 3-9X40 Scope(1" tube), I’ll put the scope on my flattop AR15 for range fun shooting.

Any suggestions as per these scope mounts:

$60—80$ price range

1)RRA Hi-Rise 1" Cantilever Scope Mount - AR0130T

2)SWFA SS AR Tactical Mounts

3)Primary Arms Deluxe AR15 Scope Mount

4)MidwayUSA AR Stoner 1-Piece Extended Scope Mount

5)Burris P.E.P.R.

6)DNZ Products Freedom Reaper 5.56 Forward Ring 1-Piece Mount

Any input would be appreciated.

Get a set of tall rings from EGW that should work for you. Look at there options.

Weaver single rail mount # 48321, Quad lock rings # 49047.
Brownells.com approx. $39 plus shipping. :wink:

The Burris PEPR is pretty good for the price but made in China. You can find them around $65 or so at JoeBob and Botach, probably others. Big plus is that it can easily be removed and reattached without disturbing the scope itself, though it may or may not be a perfect return to zero.

The Midway AR-Stoner mount appears to be made by Warne and to be precisely made. However, its clamshell design makes it impossible to remove the scope without taking everything apart. I’d only use it on a rifle where the scope was going to be left in place for years.

The RRA hi-rise mount is extremely high, giving a scope height of 1.67" vs. the more common range of 1.4 to 1.5" or so, and its front extension is at rail level so it will NOT clear a typical A2 handguard, which to me is a major disadvantage.

No experience with the others.
