I would like to bring the height of my scope out about 1/2" and don't want to buy new mounts. Is there a 5" (or so) long add on picatinny riser that won't break the bank?

Try this one. It's from UTG and is 4" long. I bought it off of Amazon. I think it was about 11 bucks.

I have a half inch tall picatinny to picatinny UTG riser on my Bulldog. It’s got 20 MOA built in and the quality seems good. It was around $20 on Amazon.

@Cannonball Did the packaging specify that this riser rail has 20 MOA built in? I’m asking because I have a UTG riser that doesn’t specify that on the packaging and I’m trying to determine if I need to purchase another.

I didn’t keep the packaging but the part number on the box should end with 20MOA. The part number I bought is MT-RSX20MOA. You should also be able to see the decline on the riser if you look at it close. It’s more noticeable in person than this pic below but you can see what to look for.

@Cannonball Thank you. I saw this one in another thread. https://www.opticsplanet.com/weaver-ar-flat-top-riser-rail-20moa.html
I expect the UTG riser rail to cost much less.

Do you want less than 1/2"?
I have been searching for 3/8" tall Picatinny to Picatinny riser with no luck. If anyone is aware of one, please let me know. It doesn't have to be more than 2" long. This one on Amazon is the lowest I have found at 0.47" if you want slightly less than 1/2" of rise. They are $16 with no slope and $20 with 20 MOA. The UTG 1/2" tall looks better to me, but is too tall for what I need.
Edit: --- I just found a 3/8" tall Picatinny to Weaver riser. Strangely it does not come with clamping screws @ $33. Anything cheaper out there that comes ready to install, please let me know.

The 3d printed riser is the only one I've found below 1/2" or 0.47".
I believe there is a new version of the 3d printed one. I'll see if I have it bookmarked at home.
The only other option I've considered for a low riser is picatinny to dovetail adapter which appears to sit lower. But that wouldn't work for a built in picatinny base if that's what your dealing with.
