Nightforce Ultramount vs Unimount

I’m a little late to respond but I ended up standardizing and going with 1.54” 30mm ultramounts. I love the look and it’s truly amazing they came up with such a robust design that’s still so lightweight.

I only wish the Multimount and diveboard was cheaper because it’s expensive to try and find piggyback solutions.

My only question is, I know the crossbolts can be torqued to 100 inch/lbs. my fixit sticks only go to 65 inch/lbs currently. Is it actually necessary to torque to 100?

65 is fine

.223 - 5.56

Thanks. I tested 26.5gr in LC233 brass with the 77TMK at 2.475in just for a quick pressure test to see if my burn rate matched my modified quick load data and I got 2990fps on my Garmin X1 which is about 75fps faster than 24.3 varget in the same 26in IBI barrel.

Looking to get 2800-2850 out my next barrel in 20in.

I have some Starline 556 and LC556 brass on the way. Planning to run 25.8 with the 80.5 and 26.3 with the 77tmk.

According to QL, It’s a tad faster burning than varget and a slightly better burn in the 16-20in barrel and isn’t temp sensitive like TAC.
Starline 5.56 brass, 26.0 StaBALL Match, Rem 7 1/2, and 80 ELDM’s have been very accurate in my 18” Bartlein. 2.500 OAL. Going just over 2800, it has worked well out to 860 yards so far.

2800-2850 should be easy for you with a 20” barrel.
