The Warne X-SKEL 34mm scope mount delivers precision optics mounting with reduced weight through its skeletal design. This one-piece mount eliminates the need for separate rings and bases while maintaining the structural integrity required for heavy recoiling rifles.
What Makes This Different
The X-SKEL design removes material from non-critical areas, reducing overall weight by approximately 15% compared to traditional solid mounts. The skeletal cutouts don't compromise strength - the mount maintains full contact with the scope tube across the entire surface area. This engineering approach provides the same clamping force and recoil resistance as heavier alternatives while improving rifle balance.
Key Features
- One-piece construction eliminates ring-to-base alignment issues
- 34mm tube diameter accommodates modern tactical and hunting scopes
- Black anodized finish provides corrosion resistance and non-reflective surface
- Skeletal design reduces weight without sacrificing structural integrity
- Precision machined from aircraft-grade aluminum
- Standard Picatinny rail compatibility for versatile mounting options
- Four-screw ring caps distribute clamping pressure evenly
Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and heavy recoil applications. The mount maintains zero through rapid temperature changes and sustained firing sessions. Competition shooters benefit from the reduced forward weight bias, while hunters appreciate the decreased carry weight during extended stalks. The anodized finish resists scratches from brush contact and scope adjustments.
