I have a quick question for Tavor owners.

I just picked up a Tavor and waiting for delivery.

I'm looking to re-use either of the following optics:

1. TRS-25 red dot using a 1" riser
2. Bushnell AR-223 using a Nikon P223 mount

My question is if I the Nikon P223 mount with the Bushnell AR-223 scope is enough to have a good cheek weld on a Tavor TAR-21. Do I need to add another riser to the P223 mount?

As for the TRS-25, will a 1" riser suffice?

Appreciate any advise.
 
I just measured my Tavor and I have 1.9" from the center line of the scope (center of rings) to the flat of the cheek weld area above the action (or about 1.5" from top of rail to bottom of the 1" scope tube). My cheek weld is exact enough that in the winter hunting coyotes I cannot wear a thick face mask, scarf or other wind protection: I can only use a thin winter face camo net. I achieved this measurement by using a Midwest Industries Tavor Riser (ordered from Wolverine, site sponsor) and a re-purposed P.E.P.R. mount I had from another rifle I sold some time ago. I did specifically want to achieve the ability to use any AR height based scope rings: I find the riser superior for my own use and application.

I would suggest if you have the ability to get someone to help you: hold the rifle up yourself in the shooting position and have someone else hold the scope and tape measure to get a close estimate. Most manufacturers of rings have the bottom of tube to rail height online.

Just my suggestion and opinions on what works for me.
 
Thank you for the suggestion below. I'll try out the scope first without the riser and if I need additional height, I'll look into the Midwest industries riser.

Thanks for the heads up. It seems they have the item in stock when I checked earlier this week.

I will warn you that it took Wolverine Supplies 9 months to get me one: I ordered in the fall (about this time of year), they did their yearly Midwest order in March (I believe) and I picked it up in June.

Before that I had Burris or some other manufacturer's extra, extra high rings on it.
