Scope Mount Recommendations

[Drillboss]

Please forgive my ignorance, but if you are using a flat top receiver, why do you need a mount at all? Shouldn't you be able to simply put your scope in a tall set of Weaver style rings and mount them directly to the rail?

To get the proper eye relief with my scopes, I would either have to put one ring on the receiver and the other on the handguard or put both rings on the receiver behind the adjustment turrets. I don't like either of those options.

Thanks for all the inputs. It's a 1" scope tube, so that seems to eliminate some of the options. I've got an Aero and a Warne on the way. One will probably go back.
