Or you can follow basic gun safety and not point a firearm at them.

b) i can think of quite a few reasons why i would/will take my scopes off and want it to retain its zero with a rail and QD mounts. i'll let you figure them out. and it sure as hell aint to be "tacti-kool!"

Quite a few huh. OK.

c) why in hells name do i want to add more stress to a stress point already????? having a bipod mounted to a stud, than your sling mounted to bipod makes ZERO sense to me. and adding another stud is SIMPLE and CHEAP while you have action out of stock. both studs have backing plates to assure never having one pull thru. marine tex them in and your golden.

I don't see how this adds more stress, been carrying rifles that way for years with no problems.

d) i think you better rethink your thoughts on low /med/high scope mounts and objectives. but hey WTF do i know? maybe just maybe you might be running out of adjustment on your elevation???? but hey WTF............YOU build precision rifles for a living and mcmillian/robar know nothing. funny thats how they do all of theirs for rem 700's m-70's , m-14's ,lapuas. FOR YEARS NOW!
funny how current socom fnh scars are using the "as low as you can go" approach using (4) different scope mfgs for testing each with no bigger than a 44mm objective.
gosh i wonder why i went with the american defense mfg "delta" QD scope mount(DOD NSN#) and leupold 3.5x10x44mm scope?????????

I am sure they have their reasons, but I doubt they have anything to do with accuracy.
Run some numbers yourself, you will see I am right.
On edit, missed this earlier:

Actually, as I stated, you need less elevation with a higher mounted scope than lower. Not a lot less, but still less.
