Looking to mount my scope

[bostonbilly]

Hey guys, I am looking for some help picking a scope mount. I have a Nikon Monarch 2x8 that needs to go on my Precision Firearm flattop in 6.5 Grendel. I read thru http://precisionrifleblog.com/2014/10/ and can't decide whether rings or a single piece would be better for me. I would want to stay around the 100.00 area for now. This will be a range and hunting weapon. I am sure the gun will out shoot me and my abilities but the range can reach out to 300 yards and my typical hunts are no more than 150 yards. I appreciate the help and will add any needed info based on questions.

I have the burris pepr on two ar's and a gg&g quick detach on one. For my new pf grendel im going with gg&g.

PF sells gg&g, check out the website they may sell others too.

Cool I will check them out

Sorry I should have added that it is a 1 inch tube and I would rather stay away from 30mm to 1 inch adapters. The gg&g needs an adapter so that is out but the burris looks like a 1 inch specific.

I like the 1 piece mounts best, I have a couple of Rock River Arms 1" scope mounts which are very solid mounts but inexpensive. If you plan on using a backup iron sight you'll need the cantilever mount. I ordered my mounts directly off RRA website, might be worth checking out.

I just checked RRA has a special free shipping on orders over $50, plus 10% off some items ordered from their website. Here is a link.

Thanks. I am not planning on back ups since this isn't my SHTF weapon. I will check them out now

They seem like they sit high. How is the scope height

burris pepr Solid mount that works well

[bostonbilly]

I am between the Nikon m-223 and the Burris pepr. Any opinions of the two

They come in three heights. The tall ones fit me perfectly.

One of the gentlemen that attended my DM Course last weekend had the Burris mount on his Vortex Viper HS. It took him a full turn up to get the scope zero'd, so when he attempted to dial for ranges past 400yds, he ran out of elevation, and the scope only had the duplex reticle with no real increments to hold with.

For a limited close-range hunting stick, any decent set of rings or mount will work, but just keep in mind that if you ever decide to stretch your legs, you might run into the same issue.

What barrel length do you have on your PF Grendel?

[bostonbilly]

I am still waiting on it but it is a 16". How would I fix the issue of running out of adjustment

Get a 20 MOA cant. I personally have taken a liking to the NightForce Unimount for reduced weight on a lightweight hunting or target dual-purpose blaster.

This is my Lilja-barreled lightweight Grendel:



You're looking at the mid-$200's for that mount though.

[bostonbilly]

Yeah that is alittle to rich for me. I will look ar the Burris and the Nikon to see if they have the 20 moa
