[QUOTE="Pete Lincoln, post: 55603, member: 2245"] Ive used leupold quick release, they work but aren't heavey duty enough. Double dovetail, useless, shoot loose, dovetailed front, 2 big screws rear, useless, shoot loose, not robust. and i don't care which manufacturer. weaver style, getting there but most of the stuff is cast and is just not reliable enough, pracisely machined enough, most have poor screw quality, many rings will mark your scope tube, shoot loose, not robust.Warne will not return to zero 100%, EAW so popular here in germany for thier swing of mounts, to many parts, to complicated, not robust, shoot loose with big scopes. Accuracy International, pile of aluminium crap that looks like it belongs on an air rifle, won't return to zero, the alloy is soft, the screws strip threads. Leuplod Mk 4, IOR, Mounting solutions and other like them are all a variation on the Badger set up, they aren't much cheaper than Badger and bager are simply better quality, you can see that by just looking at them. Yep Dave i guess i'm in the 2%. i can only use equipment effectively if i can have confidence in it. and BadgerOrd stuff is built like a tank, finished like a mercedes benz and realy doesn't cost all that much, they are certainly cheaper then EAW.
