Piggyback / 12 O’Clock Red Dots (vs WMLRFs)

There is a perpetually ongoing debate regarding accessories on scoped carbines and precision setups This video is a resource for anyone considering whether to go piggyback / top mount, offset, or utilize a WMLRF in 2025. This video primarily focuses on piggyback setups in particular. I go over philosophy of use, red dot selection (Aimpoint, Steiner, Holosun, Sig, Vortex), mount considerations (Nightforce, Badger, Leupold, Primary Arms, ADM), and scope considerations (Steiner, NF, Leupold). Additionally I talk about brightness levels, zeroing distances, and night vision use. This channel was inspired by others mentioned in this video, including Nutnfancy, Brass Facts, Hoplopflheil, and Lucas Botkin. 00:00 Introduction 01:16 BLUF 02:45 Why To Use a Top Mounted / Offset Red Dot 03:54 Real Estate Conundrum 06:05 Piggyback vs WMLRF 07:15 Red Dot Considerations 09:09 Mount Considerations 10:37 Scope Considerations 13:57 Dot Brightness 14:52 Zeroing Distances 16:23 Night Vision Considerations 17:50 Verse of the Video - Exodus 4 10-14 ————————————————————————- Music: Timeless by Devyzed   /    / devyzed   License: Creative Commons — Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported Free Download / Stream: https://www.audiolibrary.com.co/devyz...
