I am in the process of building my black gun (my first and I just put the lower and stock together yesterday!) that will be chambered in 223 rem. and am really considering the flattop upper with a (and this is what the post is about to critique/tip/criticize away):

-Flip Up Front and Rear Sights

-Moderately Powerful (3-9 or better) scope with a mount that I can remove and replace while keeping my zero.

Have any of you had any experience with this type of a setup/ know anything about the return to zero scope mounts? I feel like it can be faulty just by its nature, but I like the idea of having the choice.

My use for the gun is plinking and short/moderate range shooting.
