I got a side rail on it that I put there, nice and level with the bore axis. My simmons glass stays on the mount, but unless I’m shooting at something about 8” in diameter at 400, I remove the whole side mount as I generally don’t run glass. It’s my hunting optic, and all the rest of the time I run an ultimak/aimpoint combo with an angled grip and a 600 lumen light. Straight cut milled receiver, stuck an MOE collapsible stock on it with a convertible 1 or 2 point sling and called it a day
nice set up!
