Overview
Designed for flattop-style rifles, this cantilever mount provides a practical way to set up a 1-inch telescopic sight with a forward offset that helps achieve proper eye relief and head placement. Its ring position places the scope tube center at 1.59 inches from the base, giving a defined mounting height for a consistent optic setup. Built from aluminum, it keeps the design straightforward for hunters and shooters who want a dedicated mount for rifle optics without unnecessary complexity. At 6.7 ounces, it adds a modest amount of weight while serving a specific role in scope installation.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed specifically for 1-inch telescopic sights, so it is not a fit for larger tube diameters without the correct optic setup.
- The 2-inch forward offset is useful for eye relief on flattop rifles, but it may not suit rifles or shooting positions that need a different scope placement.
- The mount places the scope tube center 1.59 inches above the base, which is a fixed height and may not match every cheek weld or optic clearance preference.
- At 6.7 ounces, it adds some weight to the rifle setup, which is worth considering on lighter builds.
