The Warne 8522DE Hyperlite scope mount delivers precision mounting for 34mm riflescopes with a lightweight aluminum construction that won't compromise accuracy. This Dark Earth finished mount provides the strength shooters demand while reducing overall rifle weight compared to traditional steel mounts.
What Makes This Different
The Hyperlite series uses aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminum construction that weighs 40% less than comparable steel mounts while maintaining the same structural integrity. Warne's proprietary clamping system distributes stress evenly across the scope tube, preventing ring marks and ensuring consistent zero retention. The Dark Earth Cerakote finish provides superior corrosion resistance and reduces glare in tactical environments.
Key Features
- 34mm tube diameter accommodates modern tactical and hunting scopes
- 7075-T6 aluminum construction reduces weight without sacrificing strength
- Dark Earth Cerakote finish resists corrosion and reduces reflectivity
- Precision-machined ring surfaces ensure proper scope alignment
- Cross-bolt design provides secure clamping without over-torquing
- Compatible with Picatinny and Weaver rail systems
- Torque specifications clearly marked for proper installation
Field testing demonstrates the mount's ability to maintain zero through repeated recoil cycles and temperature variations. The lightweight construction proves advantageous for hunting applications where rifle weight matters during extended carries. Law enforcement and competition shooters benefit from the mount's quick-detach capability and return-to-zero reliability when optics must be removed for maintenance or transport.
