Trumpet Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Now that I have my scope on the way (Bushy Tac Elite 3-12) I need a mount. Now, I really don't have a need for QD (although if a QD mount is the best deal in terms of rigidity, etc then so be it). I don't want to spend a ton (so NF/Spuhr/Bobro are out), but I want something good. On the higher end, I'm was looking at JP and ADM. On the lower end of the price spectrum, I was looking at the Leupold Mk2 IMS, Aero precision (looks awfully thin though), Warne RAMP, and Burris PEPR. Are there any advantages to the JP/ADM over the "lower end" ones? I also want to make sure whichever I end up with, doesn't mar the scope, etc. Recommendations? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddoo7 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I would not get QD unless you absolutely felt like you had to have it. I would get a badger one piece. Badger make good rings. They run about $200. They are not hard to remove and put back on, but you will need a 1/2" wrench and preferably a torque wrench to put them back on.

atvman400 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I really like the WARNE mounts. They come with steel inserts that the screws go into so they won't strip out like a lot of the other mounts that just tap the aluminum(JP, Votrex, Burris). If the WARNE SKEL will get you far enough forward, that is what I would recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I use the Aero Precision, very light and very sturdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striped1 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I wouldn't discount Bobro or Larue. Both are excellent and worth the money. I just mounted a vortex razor in a bobro and have been very impressed with it. +1 on the torque wrench. Scope rings and mounts should always be installed with proper torque settings.

MarkCO Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Warne XSKEL is what I would recommend. Strong, great RTZ, huge supporters of the shooting sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absocold Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 On a budget I'd go Primary Arms. https://www.primaryarms.com/Primary_Arms_Deluxe_AR15_Scope_Mount_30mm_p/padlxsm.htm Their 4-14x44 FFP scope is a tremendous value as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Another vote for AERO Precision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCAR Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Warne, Aero or Leupold MK2 are all solid mounts for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gNinja Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I have had no issues with my Warne and Aero, I haven't tried the Leupold. I had the Burris Pepr and I only use the other two now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
