The Rearden Argos scope mount in the 30mm ring size and 1.74-inch height (brand part no. 10217) holds a 30mm scope tube at a fixed clearance above the rail. Rearden Manufacturing machines the Argos from 7075-T651 plate and finishes it in black with a Type 3 hardcoat anodize. It is a cantilever optic mount, and the maker calls it one of the lightest in its class without giving up stiffness. The 1.74-inch height is one of three the line offers, chosen to suit the shooter’s anatomy, gear and shooting positions. It is a solid choice for a rifle that needs a lightweight, rigid mount for a 30mm optic.
