Overview

Built for bolt-action rifles, this mount is intended for pairing high-power optics with a straightforward, low-profile setup. It is the lowest mount offered by American Defense Manufacturing and does not include built-in eye relief, so it suits shooters who already know their optic position requirements. Precision machining from 6061 T6 aluminum and a hard coat T3 Mil-Spec anodized finish give it a purposeful, no-frills construction. The patented QD Auto Lock Lever system is designed to work with both in-spec and out-of-spec rail systems, making it a practical choice for hunters setting up a rifle for serious glass.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is the lowest mount in the line, so clearance and optic placement may be more constrained than with taller options.
  • It is a straight scope mount with no built-in eye relief adjustment, so proper rifle and optic setup depends on the user’s configuration.
  • The 34mm ring size limits it to compatible 34mm scopes only.
  • The 20 MOA cant is intended for long-range setup, which may not suit every bolt-action application.
