Thanks folks, went with a Burris PEPR for now. Operation may not be as smooth as some higher end ones but for now they'll do until I have a setup that a scope will live permanently on. Had a pretty frustrating first day with my first AR-15 but it's kind of funny and after I figured out the problem it's reassuring that sometimes it IS the equipment and not the shooter. (Here's a hint, I'm waiting for a Wheeler torque wrench to adequately torque the rings) I'll probably write a separate post about that. I will say that if I ever do get a scope worth more than 300 or so, I could justify nicer mounts.
