My sight is .558 from the rail. I am putting on is a Leupold ultra light 33mm think that would make difference?

YOU CAN'T DO THIS!! The weight of the mount alone would upset the balance of that ultralight gold ring you want on there. Not to mention, on top of that you are going to add another 4 oz by putting iron sights on it WITH AN ULTRALIGHT SCOPE!! Not to mention an AR platform is already heavy BEFORE you load it! God help you. If you put this thing together the way you're talking about, and actually load it, you're going to have Scoliosis for sure. I think you should just buy one of those cricket .22lr's with open sights, and have Chad at Longrifles inc. helically flute the barrel,  so you can get deep back in public hunting areas where the DIY fair chase Boone & Crockett bunnys live.


Your a funny guy.

I am not going for a super light outfit but, will cut where I can. ;)

Try a Knights Armament fold down rear sight. It is a very low profile sight, and should fit under most scopes. They are expensive though, $200+.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.
