I've got an ULE center feed body with an RT Pro sight rail and I'm looking to add a scope to the rail.

My initial thought is to get an angled riser like this:

But that's meant for picatinny rails. A tri-rail would work also I think, assuming it could be mounted.

Any ideas for what things can actually be mounted to the sight rail?

I see two options. One, you could get a dovetail to weaver adapter. Two, you could drill a couple of holes directly into the side of your high-rise site (above the valve) at a 90 degree angle to the body (as opposed to straight down). Then mount a standard picatinny rail at said 90 degree angle directly to you riser, leaving the dovetail unused.

Actually, couldn't you just run screws through the existing windows in the existing rail to mount a new one at 90*??

That said, I don't know what exactly you're trying to mount, but a Holographic site can 'see through' the feedneck. But that doesn't do you any good if you want a telscopic scope.

Looking to put a telescopic just to help me see more detail on what I'm shooting at.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. :)
