30mm low profile one piece scope mount

[Tacops65]

It's been a minute.
I'm building an ultralight CTR.
Thoughts please regarding acquisition of a high-pro low profile 30mm one piece QD optics mount, for pic rail.
Thanks.

all mounts are QD with a fix-it-stick. just like QC actions, QD mounts just don't make much sense in almost every case

ultralight and 1 piece mount don't really go together either

Era-Tac/Recknagel has a beautiful ultralight unimount: https://www.eurooptic.com/era-tac-ultra-light-mounts.aspx

Thanks for the info.

It's been over a decade since I've put a gun together from scratch.
Looking online for key components has me in information overload mode.
I appreciate your time.

Be careful going too low on a one piece mount.
I have a Nightforce 30mm cantilever mount that none of my scopes will fit in due to the erector housing contacting the base of the mount before making contact with the ring halves. It's a 1.125" high mount so not exactly super low profile.
I found the same issue with a EraTac 34mm mount.

The manufacurer of the mounts usually show this dimension in their specs/drawings but scope manufactures don't list the clearance needed so you'll need to measure the scope you want to use yourself.

If you are wanting a mount that can be removed and installed and retain zero, most decent quality rings will do this just fine.
Most of my rings are Nightforce Ultralite rings and the RTZ more or less perfectly, perfect enough for me not to notice any measurable shift and I swap my scopes are frequently.
