Picatinny/Weaver mounts for riflescopes with a 30 mm tube diameter – the standard on modern, high-transmission optics. Need a different diameter? We also carry 1" and 34 mm mounts.

30 mm Mounts for Picatinny/Weaver Rails

30 mm has become the most common tube diameter on modern riflescopes, as it allows greater light transmission and more internal adjustment range. For Picatinny and Weaver rails we offer an extensive range from Anschütz Optics, Scalarworks and Sportsmatch UK.

Anschütz Optics: QR and Screwed Tactical

The Anschütz Optics ring mount 30 mm is available both with a quick-release lever (Low, Medium, High) for tool-free swaps and as a tactical ring mount with two hex screws per ring for maximum stability during continuous hard use. If you need an adjustable height, choose the variable ring mount 30 mm.

The Scalarworks FUSE/02 (30 mm) is a high-end one-piece mount with a patented LevelDrive system for precise, repeatable alignment and a 1.57-inch height – built for maximum precision in tactical and hunting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions About 30 mm Picatinny/Weaver Mounts

Why has 30 mm become the standard?

A 30 mm tube allows more light transmission and greater internal windage/elevation adjustment range than a 1" tube – which is why many modern riflescopes now use this diameter.

What makes the Scalarworks FUSE/02's LevelDrive system special?

The patented LevelDrive system ensures precise, repeatable alignment of the riflescope when the mount is reattached – ideal if the optic is removed frequently.

QR mount or screwed mount – which is better?

Quick-release mounts allow a tool-free, fast optic swap. Screwed tactical mounts offer marginally more stability for continuous hard use.

How tight should I tighten the mount?

Recommended torque is usually around 2.0 Nm for the ring screws at the riflescope and around 3.4 Nm for fixing the mount to the rail. Overtightening can damage the scope tube.
