Scope Mount Tough vs Weight

[marc357]

The Mountain Tactical bases have/ use the recoil lug. If they are sold out, Beretta USA sells them too.

I've read posts that the Talley lightweights ring mounts can crack.

I have used Talley LW on 3 rifles of my own and 2 for a friend and never had a problem with cracking.
From the posts I have read the cracking that you mentioned are from over torquing and not a defective product.
All manufacturers have a recommendation on torque values and if someone decides to tighten it to foot pounds instead of inch pounds you can't blame the product.

I have used these Sportsmatch T084 on 4 different Tikkas over the years and they are tough as nails. They mount to the dovetail on the Tikka receiver and have a recoil lug. There is a taller model if needed (HT073).

I like one piece mounts with a bubble level. I've had good luck with Audere Adversus Gen 2 Scope Mounts and the M-Brace Mount. Both have pita bubble levels.

Also hard to beat IMO, is the 6 screw NF rings with the bubble ring cap.

6061 is vastly inferior to 7075 aluminum and that's why all the chinesium parts and brands selling to the lowest price point use it. A lot of good domestic manufacturers have been mentioned already. I'll add Warne to that list.

They are made in the UM shop….Idaho, I think.

I bought them. They have a strong following on Rokslide.

Don't agree with this broad statement, at least for quality American made parts from 6061, such as Hawkins Precision. While it's true that 7075 is a stronger alloy, it doesn't mean that quality 6061 is not sufficient.
