Pros

  • Hard coat T3 Mil-Spec anodized finish

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is a low-profile mount with no built-in eye relief, so optic placement must be set up by the shooter rather than the mount.
  • It is intended for bolt-action rifles and high-power glass, which makes it more specialized than a general-purpose scope mount.
  • The 20 MOA cant is a deliberate setup choice that may not suit every rifle or shooting distance.
  • The QD Auto Lock Lever system is designed to work with both in-spec and out-of-spec rail systems, but fit still depends on the rifle and rail setup.
