I just received my most prized optic toy after much reading about the wonders of EOTech red dots. I mounted it on my flat top Carbon 15 M4 (Bushy) and it looks like everything I wanted in a very quick two eye acquisition red dot sight. I am wondering this...... I shoot a lot at the range for fun on paper, so slow fire at stationary targets is my hobby (cept for tacticle handgun different story).
My question is, I also have a decent Nikon Buckmaster 3-9X scope that is fun to shoot at 100-200yard range also, which is mounted on one of those good quality screw on aluminum riser mounts. I can take if off, put it back on and be within a couple clicks of zero every time. Very happy with this setup. Now, with the EOTech, will it hurt my 25, 50, 100 yard accuracy if I have it on the same type of aluminum screw on riser. IE, will I have to spend an hour to re-zero if I take it off? I know that the best setup for repeatability and accuracy is closest to the barell, on my flattop, but I like the changeability of optics more.
Anyone have any concrete idea on loss of accuracy if I add 3/4" to my sight plane on my red dot? It seems like I am loosing my elevation zero at different ranges - noticable say between shooting 20 yard target and then 50. I'm thinking it is due to this high mount system I'm trying to use. Anyone have any experience with this? thanks
