BLKSHEEP Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) This is my 50mm Obj. scope, 30mm ADM-Recon w/20 moa & Buttler Creek scope caps, as you can see there's not much clearence left if you're going to use scope caps.

Justintoxicated Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) Well I have done a lot more research and thinking. I and 80-90% on the Aadland 20 MOA mount. Yes I know its not the Bobro or ADM I had originally thought about going with lol. This rifle will be somewhat of a precision rig and I dont plan of using back up iron sights. If I do I can always go the route of the 45 degree angle sights or mounts and mount a small red dot. I am still not 100% but am getting there, buy once cry once lol. What scope are you going to use? If I had a 30mm or 35mm scope tube I would definately get the AAD mount. EASY decision for me. Because they do not have the updated model in 34mm my decision is much harder. Theres always the Spuhr but it is overkill for me and I don't want to spend $450+ on a mount. IMO the AAD as good or better than the spuhr for my use, I was set on using it too which I was going to get a razor HD. Now that I have a 34mm tube, my options are not as good (although there may be more of them). This is my 50mm Obj. scope, 30mm ADM-Recon w/20 moa & Buttler Creek scope caps, as you can see there's not much clearence left if you're going to use scope caps. ADM says they're 1.470 ( I assume that's correct) http://www.americandefensemanufacturing.com/view/product/298/ Primary Arms shows 1.403 (Type o ?) https://www.primaryarms.com/American_Defense_ADRECON_30MM_20_MOA_Moun_p/ad-recon-30-20moa.htm if you plan to use scope caps don't forget to factor them into your clearance. The Centerline changes per scope ring size with the ADM mount. For a 34mm tube it is 1.55". Also there's different heights of various uppers, and for me I don't have that rail sticking up in front of the upper either, which would allow me to get even closer to the barrel if I desired. All things someone should take into consideration. I was about to get the badger 1.30" centerline mount, but ended up ordering the JP one piece 34mm mount. Apparently I also accidentally ordered the ADM mount but I think I will send it back. Edited April 16, 2013 by Justintoxicated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra644 Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 SWFA has 34mm AAD in stock. I am going to use my Night Force 3.5-15x50 NXS NPR2 and its going on my AR-10 Super SASS. I sold one to buy one kinda thing but kept the scope and bi-pod. Also Leupold has 34 MM rings was well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebra644 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'm drooling......... I cant pick mine up for another couple of weeks waiting on the tax man, thank goodness for layaway at my local gun store lol. I have all the replacement parts for my Super Sass now. I transferred my Night Force over to this rifle as well as my Harris notched swivel 6-9 " bi-pod. I installed the Phoenix tactical pod claw and rubber pads on the bi-pod. GG&G adapter. A MDT recoil pad for the PRS stock, Spikes Tactical winter trigger guard, Ergo palm shelf grip and Giessle SSA trigger that I used in another AR platform with about 500 rnds through it so very smooth. AAC thread protector and I will be ordering the Aadland 1 piece mount. I will post a pic of it when I am done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebra644 Posted April 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 I did it I ordered the Aadland mount after some serious thought and help from you guys. I will run a side mounted red dot a some point. I just received the mount yesterday and let me tell you wow. Very well built like a tank and very nice machining. I am surprised he does not charge more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerman Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I bought an Addmount too. But it's the only one I know so can't really compare. It is a very well built mount. Looks beautiful. I really like that it is very smooth. I thought the addition of the level was a nice touch, but in real life, it is hard to see. There is just no light down there and no back light. I do use it, but in low light... probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justintoxicated Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) I love the 35mm Addmount but decided against using spacers, and their 34mm version is just ok. Still a good mount by all means but there was allot of improvements to the 35mm version. I doubt I'd bother upgrading at this point because I am very happy with the JP mount. Here' a picture of the JP mount I ended up with. 308_7 by Glamisduner, on Flickr Edited May 20, 2013 by Justintoxicated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
