Does anyone use a one piece QD scope mount on their bolt action? I was interested in using a LaRue LT120 to mount my Bushnell DMR2 to my .308 bolt rifle. It's not so much to move the scope from rifle to rifle (though I may do that) but I like the idea of bring able to quickly remove my scope for transportation (such as flying) and storage.
Not sure if it's worth it or if I should just get rings. I mean I may not remove my scope that much. I plan on moving my rifle into a chassis with an adjustable cheek piece at some point. |

Nice to have if you ever decide to use a night optic. If I ever get rich I'm going to order the LaRue for my pulsar. And have a leupold pig plex 1X4. |
| IMO a QD mount has no place on a real precision bolt rifle. Â My optics don't often come off my rifles, and if they do I have a torque wrench which serves pretty much the same function. Â Even the smallest shift in zero is not worth messing with on a rifle that is regularly shot at long rage. |
My cheapest scope was $2600. You can bet your ass they're not goin' in a POS Larue mount.
Nightforce rings on a Nightforce base, or Badger. Torque the cross bolts the same and it'll return to zero just fine. I just remounted a scope yesterday and shot it at 565 yards. Still perfectly zeroed. |
