I have a 3-9mag/40mm scope that has a 1" tube on a 3/4" flat top riser. The scope rings also have a 3/4" rise so the center of the scope is about 3" above the center of the barrel, and this works great. Also they make 2" rise scope rings, which would work if you didn't want a riser. If you want to have iron sights as well, maybe an A-2 style carry handle with a scope on top is an idea. I'm changing to a carry handle, one is on the way. The riser was 15 bucks at a gun shop. The carry handle w/rail was 45 bucks online. Hope this helps.
