Overview

Built for riflemen setting up a scoped rifle on a Picatinny rail, this 36mm, 20 MOA mount is aimed at shooters who want a purpose-driven mounting system rather than a generic accessory. It is positioned as an evolution of American Rifle Company’s M10 scope rings, with the kind of fit-and-install focus serious hunters and precision shooters expect when dialing in an optic. The 1.26-inch height and black finish give it a straightforward, low-profile presentation, while the listed 6.2 Nm torque spec provides a clear installation reference. One practical note: on actions with 90-degree bolt rotation, placement at the far aft recoil slot may require moving the mount forward one slot to avoid bolt-handle interference.

Pros

  • Part of American Rifle Company's M-BRACE Scope Mounting System
  • Designed as an evolution of ARC's M10 Scope Rings
  • Torque specification provided for scope clamp installation: 6.2 Nm (55 in-lbs)

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • When mounted in the far aft recoil slot on an action with 90 degree bolt rotation, the 32mm height serrated interface block may interfere with the bolt handle when opened.
  • The mount is specified at 36mm / 1.26" and 20 MOA, so it is intended for that exact scope and setup rather than a broad fit across different tube sizes or zeroing preferences.
  • Installation calls for a torque spec of 6.2 Nm (55 in-lbs) on the scope clamp, so proper tools and careful setup are important.
  • This is a premium, purpose-built mounting system from American Rifle Company, which may be more specialized than a simpler ring setup for hunters who want minimal complexity.
