[QUOTE="Southern Sportsman, post: 5304379, member: 10399"] Get the Burris mounted and you’ll be glad you did. I have two mounted with the Burris mounting plate designed for a Marlin 336 ([URL='https://www.opticsplanet.com/v/410333-burris-fastfire-mounting-plate.html']Available here[/URL]), and one mounted with a Sumtoy mount. I would order a Sumtoy because his products are top-notch, he’s a good guy to deal with, and I like buying from small businesses. But both work equally well and mount the sight as low as it can be mounted. Well, technically the Speed Bead mount is lower, but I personally like it mounted to the receiver. As for sunlight, it’s never been a problem and I often pattern shooting west at around sunset. You can select the brightness or just click the button once when turning on and it auto adjusts based on ambient light. The only visibility issue I’ve encountered is when hunting in hard rain. If the lens is covered in water droplets, it definitely blurs the sight picture and the dot. But that will be true with any optic. [/QUOTE]
