has anyone tried this one piece direct fit scope mount.

been looking at mounting options and well. i really would like something with a recoil lug but came across this and it looks like a pretty nice set up. could have been made with better materials but hey. just cant find any reviews for it anywhere online.

Looks nice. I wonder if that would work with my Bushnell 3-9x40 BDC.

if you can find specs that tell the distance between the rings let me know.
i was looking to spend twice as much as this scope, but im thinking ill give this one a try. i like that its set up specifically for the 6.5cm. still need the specs on this scope as well. though im waiting for primary arms to open their doors again. then ill just make the 2 hour trip to houston to look with my own eyes... i hate buying optics sight unseen online.

ive never owned anything from primary arms so i have no idea if the glass is clear at max zoom or if i should stick the 1k price range for clear glass.

The scope I bought is specifically for the .223 and is calibrated for 55 and 62 gr bullets. I just want to be able to shoot the Savage and my new Ruger 22/45. I bought both during this pandemic and all the ranges in NJ are closed. The thing that kills me is I can play golf but I can’t go to a range. Let me know how you make out. I am calling Savage today to find out what rail I need so I can order that.

Looks like a decent piece of kit. Similar; I've been using the DNZ
tactical one piece, 20 MOA mounts on 2 rifles. I have a third DNZ
stored away in 34mm. Might be needed on the next build. Level
is a nice touch but would prefer it to be on the scope. I like the
large bubble on my Hollands.

Looks to be as good as any other 6061 Aluminum mount. Not really much to a mount. Looking for proper machining & as much rigidity as possible. If it were made of 7075 this would be a top seller. Although 6061 works just fine in a 1-piece mount. I would NOT want rings made of 6061 though. They will flex too much.

I live in Lumberton Tx, just north of Beaumont. That said, i may just buy the mount and try it. Gotta wait for my rifle to get back from the gunsmith though. Brand new Savage 110 FCP HS Precision in 300PRC and the damn thing fails on me in the very first round. Brass stuck in chamber.. So it has to be reamed. Chamber is a bit to tight, savage has a 5-6 month wait and im expected to pay the shipping. So instead of paying the shipping im paying a local smith $200 to make my brand new $1400 rifle function properly. Just my luck. Anyway i'll wait to get it back to get measurements of the screws and screw spacing. Not sure if the action has the same specs as a normal 110 being as its a mag fed version of a savage target action. Im also unsure if its the same action as the 338LM as i got to look at them side by side and they appeared to be 100% identical.

forgot to mention that $200 is fixing the issue, glass bedding the stock, and doing a trigger job. Shipping back to savage would have been at least $100 so yeah.

The only people I know that would know if the actions are the same would be Fred Moreo and possibly Jim Baker. The amount of thrust is the determining factor.

i assume you are talking about recoil.
only fired 5 rounds, each time the brass got stuck. That being said i expected it to be far worse than it is, as everything i read about the 300PRC says it has more recoil than a 300 win mag. I suppose the weight and that large brake soak it up. It's far less than my 7mm mag i just sold, and even less than my dads .270. I could shoot this rifle all day.
That said i want a high quality scope and mount. I would love a one piece direct fit mount but if that does not work to my liking i'll go for a steel rail and a spuhr mount. Would rather less components to ever "come loose" but if i need a base and a mount. i'll go with the best.

I don't think you can go wrong with the Spuhr. I have 2 of their one piece 34 mm rings. You have to have the rail though. 7076
I also am very surprised at the strength of the ARC rings. Never a problem and never a doubt. My steel mounts are Ken Farrel. I have nothing else to compare them too.
