You won't be able to co-witness with a magnified optic but you can lift the scope with rings as high as needed to keep the bell from blocking the carry handle see-through mount. However, the issue then becomes cheek weld because the scope is lifted high. That's why I use a specific carry handle scope with integral mount to keep the scope as low as possible. Also, the eyepiece of your scope may end up being well behind the rear sight making things complicated.With a large scope you might find that a setup like Blackbeard's works well. In any event... looking forward to hear how it works for you.
