The Warne X-SKEL Cantilever Mount (brand part number XSKEL30DE) is a 30mm ring-and-base combo finished in Dark Earth and built with a lightweight, skeletonized aluminum body and caps that trim weight without sacrificing reliability. Warne secures the mount to the rail with number 8 Torx-style fasteners backed by steel threaded inserts to prevent stripping over repeated mounting and dismounting. An additional 1-inch cantilever forward design gives extra eye relief and places the optic at the ideal height for MSR and similar platforms, and the mount attaches with a dual 1/2-inch tactical nut system, torqued to a recommended 65 inch-pounds for a secure, repeatable zero.
