Considerations & Trade-offs

  • The AD-RECON-SL is described as the lowest mount in American Defense Manufacturing’s line, so it may offer less height than users who prefer a taller setup.
  • It is a straight scope mount with no built-in eye relief, so optic placement must be handled by the rifle and scope setup rather than the mount itself.
  • The mount is specified for 34mm scopes, so it is only suitable for optics with that tube diameter.
  • The 20 MOA cant is intended for a specific setup purpose, which may not suit every bolt-action rifle or optic configuration.
