Are you saying that it won't place it far enough forward on an AR-10 type platform? </div></div>
To acquire the correct amount of eye relief for myself, I need a cantilever style mount. While it's possible to mount rings directly on top of the AR10 rail, I find that the scope lay too close to my eye by about 2 inches. This can be corrected for by either sliding my head back towards the heel of the stock (which works but doesn't feel exactly comfortable) or by using a properly spacer cantilever mount.
I believe USO makes a mount that is made to fit an AR style upper with their SN scopes. Check with John @ USO. (it may or may not be on their site)
