I was wondering if there was any legitimate, empirical info concerning the positioning of a red dot, i.e. whether it works best closer to the eye or farther away on the rail, or if it's all down to preference?

I came to this question debating whether or not I should buy a side mount for my AK74u or just leave the red dot on my RIS. I have noticed that many just place it on the RIS and I thought that made sense since iron sights on AKs are often near the middle/middle-forward part of the body.

What say you?
