The Sig Sauer Sierra3BDX 5x20mm Rifle Scope uses a 30mm maintube. I would recommend using a dedicated AR15 scope mount. Trying to co-witness this scope with iron sights would not work because the scope will un-focus your front sight. Using an AR15 scope mount like the Aero Precision Ultralight 30mm Scope Mount (linked below) would be my recommendation.
