Pivot Mounts

Introduction

The most important fact that is in common with all single piece scope mounts is that the both scope rings share one piece of material.

The whole mount is made of one piece of raw material and common process to make mount of it is milling.

Single piece scope mounts are usually made for tactical applications and are most suitable for use on Picatinny rails. Although, there are some manufacturers on the market which make elegant one piece mounts for hunting applications, such as:

Spuhr,
ERA-TAC Ultralight etc.

Besides Picatinny rails, there are other rail standards that are also common with this design of scope mounts, for example:

11 mm – Al
5 mm – Tikka, Sako TRG
19 mm – CZ 550

These type of mounts are usually made from high quality aluminium and can be either quick detachable or fixed.

Two groups of Single piece scope mounts for different purposes

FOR HUNTING RIFLES

These mounts can be found for more modern rifles, because decades ago they were not available yet. Even though we can find these mounts with great, elegant shapes (like Blaser, Sauer, Innomount and other mounts, for example), they are not that much popular with other, cheaper manufacturers.

These mounts are quite expensive and therefore they can be mostly found on modern rifles of higher price levels.

FOR TACTICAL RIFLES

Single piece scope mounts for tactical rifles are nearly perfect. It is probably the best way to mount a scope with enough rigidness, hardness, durability, reliability and precision. On the other hand, these scope mounts are normally expensive.

PROS

One of the most important advantages of single piece scope mounts is perfect ring alignment. Therefore, normally you will not flex or damage the scope with this kind of mount.

The user also gets a bigger contact surface between the scope and the mount, which is a favourable factor. One of great things with these scope mounts is that there is no lapping needed.

CONS

If you are an aesthetic freak, you might not be too happy with these mounts. They usually have the bulky appearance and bigger mass. If you can live with that, you will be just fine with the choice.

Although, you have to be prepared to pay somewhat bigger price because they are normally more expensive. Also, there is the less adjustable length for proper eye relief.

Is lapping still advisable with one piece scope mounts?

There is no need for lapping at all. You will not gain anything with it, because these scope mounts are made of one piece of material, which means perfect alignment. Of course, the mount has to be made as it should be – proper quality during manufacturing is needed.

If the quality of the production process and design is not good enough, there might be problems with such mounts. Not only that lapping is normally not needed, but there is also no need for bedding, which is also a great advantage.

Single piece mounts with an inclination

Single piece scope mounts are the most common mount form with inclination. The inclination is usually 20 MOA. Of course, matched rings are needed; they should not be mixed, otherwise, we lose this great option.

These type of mounts are great for long-range shooting because they offer whole new possibilities for long-range shooters.

Conclusion

Single piece scope mounts are great mounts because of the perfect ring alignment, rigidness and so on.

They are normally quite bulky, which might be the reason (in addition to expensive prices) that they are not so much popular on hunting rifles (except original mounts from hunting rifles manufacturers which can be very elegant and good looking – Blaser mount, Sauer mount, etc.) as they are on sport and tactical rifles. Lapping or bedding are normally not needed, which are just two more factors why they are great mounts.

Normally, if you like the appearance, you cannot go wrong with these type of mounts.

There are two terms found for similar thing: quick release scope mounts and quick detach scope mounts. Term quick release scope mounts is used mostly in Europe and quick detach scope mounts is used mainly in USA, although they mean the same thing. With these terms we describe a scope mount that can be quickly removed from the rifle in the field without using any tools and quickly attached back on the rifle when needed.

Main advantages:

possibility to use multiple scopes on the rifle,
easy transportation of the scope and the rifle separately,
if scope fails, it is possible to immediately detach it and use iron sights.

FIXED vs DETACHABLE scope mounts

Fixed scope mounts are mounted to the rifle with screws and sometimes even with glue. This means that it is impossible to attach or detach the scope mount using bare hands without using tools. It also means that they are not meant for constantly being attached on or detached off the rifle. Once you screw the mount on the rifle, it normally stays there for a longer period of use.

Detachable scope mounts offer possibility to attach or detach them without using any tools. This is extremely handy while transporting the rifle and the scope separately and it also offers multiple solutions of different optics on the same rifle. Detachable scope mounts can be attached or detached from the rifle in a matter of seconds, using bare hands.

DETACHABLE vs REPEATABLE scope mounts

It is important to know and understand expressions “detachable” and “repeatable” while talking about scope mounts. Term detachable scope mounts implies scope mounts that can be quickly attached or detached without using any tools. However, when you detach this kind of mount and attach it back on the rifle, it is recommended to zero the rifle before using it again. Procedure of detaching and again attaching the mount will probably need a sighting in before next shooting, because mount will not be secured on the rifle in the perfectly same position and conditions as it was before detaching it off the rifle.

On the contrary, repeatable scope mounts are most sophisticated mounts. These scope mounts are also detachable, however – they provide removing scope from the rifle and attaching it back again without zeroing the rifle every time. This means that they are made more precisely and that they are offering a possibility of using different optical sights / scope on the same rifle. These mounts are ideal for hunters who can use optical and iron sights interchangeably, depending on the needs in different situations. With the repeatable scope mounts, it is useful to keep them oiled as well as the upper part of the rifle, so that repeatability is more ensured. With a touch of oil, the repeatability might be better, because parts of the mount will always return to their previous locations.

Different types of repeatable scope mounts:

Pivot mounts,
Dentler mounts,
Picatinny repeatable mounts,
12 mm dovetail repeatable mounts (for break barrel rifles, such as Steyr Duett, Blaser B750, Fair Combi, Fair SLX 800, Bettinsoli rifles, etc.),
Original repeatable mounts, made by manufacturers of rifles for their rifles (Blaser mount, Sauer SUM mount, Mauser M03 mount, Steyr Monoblock mount, etc.).

TIP OFF / ROLL OFF vs SLIDE ON mounts

Nowadays, there are a whole lot of different possibilities, made for attaching riflescopes on the rifles. There are also a lot of different expressions, having the same meaning. It is good to know that tip off and roll off mounts are basically the same thing. They represent quick release scope mounts for dovetails and rails which can be rolled or tipped off the rail vertically to the side of the rail. On the contrary, there are also slide on mounts available on the market. They represent quick release scope mounts that can be slided on or off the rail or dovetail from front or rear side of the rail / dovetail. All of these expressions are mainly used for separate rings that can be attached to the rails / dovetails. As far as functioning the rifle, it does not matter which one of these mounts you choose – tip / roll off or slide on mounts. If they are installed correctly, they are all going to work. However, the main difference between them is the principle of attaching them on rails on dovetails.
