Scope Mount Comparison Table = ADJUSTABLE Mounts + LOW Mounts + Rail ADAPTORS
● What adjustable scope mounts are out there –– with how much elevation adjustment?
● What low mounts are available –– how low is mount X really, and rail adaptor Y?
● How do I get from Dovetail to Picatinny – what rail adaptors are out there?
Many options, too many options – and scattered all over the digital shopping arena.
So this SCOPE MOUNT COMPARISON TABLE in the attachment tries to help all of us to get what we need/ want!
What’s Included
The scope mount table is not exhaustive, of course...!
It includes the following:
• Adjustable scope mounts: with total elevation adjustment (cant)
• Low mounts: Picatinny (Weaver) and Dovetail
• Dovetail-to-Picatinny rail adaptors
• Prices
• Part numbers
• Special features, advantages and disadvantages
• Other scope tube sizes if available
• Total height calculated for different combinations of adaptor rails and mounts – height from bottom of the scope tube down to the gun’s scope rail groves
The scope mount table gives preference to elevation adjustable mounts and rails (cant), low mounts, 2-piece mounts, and 30mm scope tubes.
Overview of How to Read the Table
The table begins with the scope tube (30mm scope tube).
Then come options for scope rings. Preference has been given to adjustable rings, low rings, and to 2-piece rings.
Then come additional accessories for elevation adjustment.
Then come dovetail-to-picatinny-rail adaptors, if necessary, and preferably with elevation adjustment.
The table ends with a summary: total height | total elevation adjustment | total price
The table assumes you have a dovetail rail on your gun. If you already start out with a picatinny rail, great – you can then simply subtract the height of the rail adaptor from the total height (the height given in the summary at the end of the table).
Hope this is helpful! It has been to me as I always need low adjustable scope mounting for my applications.
