DNT Zulus 312 Rangefinder.

DNT's mount has this long offset between the Picatinny and the base of the scope. The way I'm configuring my set up, this long offset is not ideal. Is there a way that I can get a mount with no or less offset? I don't think DNT makes one but figure it is worth an ask for you pros here.

Thanks!!
 
Sorry that I was less than clear. By 'offest,' I meant the horizontal placement - forward and backwards, not up and down height changes off the gun.

There are FOUR screws between the mount and the scope. I realized that I can slide the scope forward and backwards so that I use only three or even as few as two screws. Would the mount still be solid with just TWO screws? (I won't trust just one screw between the mount and scope, I don't think.)

Thanks again for taking time to reply.

DNT offers the American Defense Manufacturing QD mount that's designed for Atlas bipods. Using that will eliminate all cantilever mounting features. It also lowers the height over bore from the factory mount. It only uses 2 screws for mounting and the mounting channel of the ADM mount is wider than the base of the DNT optic. Not something I would trust on any centerfire rifle, but I guess it would be okay on an air gun.

While this is true the may the bolts are inset into the mount once it is mounted evenly on both side it has been holding up very well even in the.powder world BUT it needs to be mounted slowly and make sure it is evenly spaced. ADM does have a specific mount that is in the works for the DNT lineup as well as us we will have options coming.
