    BURRIS AR- PEPR Scope Mount

    Considering this mount for a 308 Flat Top, my concern is the clearence of the 50mm Bell on my Nikon Buckmaster scope. Anyone using this mont have any issues?

    I don't own the Buckmaster, however, consider the math...

    Looks like roughly 1.5" from rail top to tube center (based on "A" value + distance to center on a 1" tube mount = .5").
    50mm + 4mm (adding est 2mm of outside bell thickness x2) = 54mm or 2.13". Divide by 2 = 1.065".

    You should have something close to 1/2 inch to spare between the bottom of the bell and the flat top rail...easy peasy
    (plenty of room for lens caps too)

      That's the same mount I have on my AR with my Mueller scope that also has a 50mm bell. Should work fine for you.

        I just bought one with a Nikon Monarch 5-20 and I think it compares well to the Larue SPR-1.5 that I have a Leupold Mark AR 6-18 mounted on. I like that the Burris comes with 2 sets of caps, one with rail mounted on top of each cap and one set without. I use the plain set of caps. The Burris is half the cost of the Larue.
        I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong...

          The Burris,Nikon and Leupold will all work fine.The Warne extra high quick releases are good also.

            Heres a pic of my LR-308 with a 30mm P.E.P.R Mount and my Weaver Tactical scope with a 50mm bell. Plenty of clearance.

              I just got a Burris PERP QD. Seems to work fine on my rifle. though my scope is only 24mm.

                I use the PEPR for my AR. I'd recommend it

                  You mean the objective lens diameter is 24mm. You need to measure the body diameter(which would be a little bigger) and in your case it's probably 30mm.

                        After each trip to the range screws on my PERP mount get a bit loose. Not to much but enough to let the scope to move from the original position. I do not have such problem on my second rifle with the same type of scope. Is there a way to prevent screws from getting loose?

                          Which screws, and are you torquing them down correctly?

                            it is rings bolts. there are 6 of them for every ring. I am not sure what is the diffirence between torquing right or wrong besides over torque or under torque.
                            I tried to torque them tight.
