The Talley DS40MM Scope Mount/Ring Combo delivers precision-engineered mounting for Swarovski DS series riflescopes with 40mm main tubes. This black anodized aluminum system eliminates the need for separate bases and rings by integrating both components into a single, streamlined unit that maintains zero retention shot after shot.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional two-piece mounting systems, this combo unit machines the rings and base from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum, eliminating potential alignment issues between separate components. The design reduces overall height while providing maximum surface contact with both the rifle's Picatinny rail and the scope tube. This integrated approach delivers superior rigidity compared to standard ring-and-base combinations that rely on multiple connection points.
Key Features
- Machined specifically for Swarovski DS series 40mm tube riflescopes
- One-piece construction eliminates ring-to-base alignment issues
- Type III hard anodized black finish resists corrosion and wear
- Precision-fit Picatinny rail interface with recoil lug engagement
- Low-profile design minimizes scope height above bore centerline
- Torque specifications clearly marked for proper installation
- American-made aluminum construction with lifetime warranty
Field performance centers on maintaining consistent point of impact across temperature extremes and heavy recoil cycles. The aluminum construction expands and contracts at nearly the same rate as most rifle actions, preventing scope shift during seasonal temperature changes. Competition shooters and precision rifle applications benefit from the system's ability to return to zero after scope removal and reinstallation. The integrated design also reduces the number of potential failure points compared to multi-component mounting solutions.
