Problem - ACOG on M14

I am confused here. Wouldn't you want to move the REAR of the mount up, and the FRONT of the mount down to move the POI down? Or am I all ####ed up?

Cheers

You're ####ed up lol. You want to raise the FRONT of your mount. What this will do is force your muzzle downwards for your scope to look at the target level. Crappy job of explaining it but think of a 20MOA Base, it lowers the front of the base, which forces your muzzle upwards for extra elevation.

Edit: Disregard, apparently I can't read that someone else has covered it.

lol ... I had the exact same problem ... and same thought process ... ended up changing out to a red dot from a AR scope anyway ... was too high for my liking ...

admittedly your groups sound a lot tighter than mine ... 4" at 100yds ...
