Glad I could help in some small way. You may still need to tweak the scope placement to optimize it, but only shooting will tell you that. The US Military also teaches touches the tip of your nose to the back of the charging handle as a reference point for repeatable cheek weld.

I'm guessing that nose to charge-handle tip is not for AR's with an A2 stock ? I know that wont work with mine,

It isn't for use with a magnified optic for sure. And I just pulled out my AR to try it and did not find it to give me a good or comfortable cheekweld with iron sights or a red-dot.

I say anyone with a Redfield on there rifle is a good person in my book lol. Really enjoying scoped AR, I'm thinking about a MK12 build or OBR now. Ima be so broke.

I like these.

Hrmmm.....

Or....

Ditch the elevated scope mount, put on a detacheable carry handle with see through rail and mount the scope on that. Now your irons are where they should be, and the optic is at the perfect height for the straight-line AR configuration.

At least that's my take. YMMV.

The elevated scope mount puts the scope at the same height as fixed irons. I couldn't keep a cheek weld at the height you have your scopes set up, but it's obviously working for you.

Actually learned it on an M16A2, and it improved my scores. Of course we were shooting with stock irons, and not super long target scopes like you have on your rifle.

Gah, you just made me remember the A2 with it's horrid three different trigger pulls resulting from the burst cam. :banghead:
