You will most likely find yourself needing an offset mount like the Burris PEPR or Aero Precision Ultralight mount. The height you need will most likely be between 1.25" and 1.5". Any higher than 1.5" above the receiver is too high without a cheek riser, IMO.

This^^^^^^^...
Both mounts are very functional and not too hard on the billfold.

Midway specs say they are on 1" to bottom of the rings on the Burris and have a $20 rebate now.

My measurements were from rail to middle of scope ring. The Burris PEPR should be a good height although if you can find an Aero Precision, I think they make a better product.
