Impact 4k mounting option thread

[fifdynutz]

Just wanted to consolidate a place everyone can share their mounting options for the impact 4k on a rifle. Im in the process of converting my rifles that will utilize it to have the capability.


Post up your setups!


So far Ive used:
Badger SLAM on an AR (side mounted off top pic rail)

Nightforce Rap-I on NF ultralight rings

Spuhr A-0032 .550" rail section on spuhr QDP
raptar lrf mount is also a known option

Other options im aware of:

Vortex precision matched diving board

ARC m-brace LRF bridge

area419 mount with diving board

Seekins HIT precision LRF mount

Hawkins precision 1 piece mount with LRF bridge

Reptilia ROF mount for Geiselle super precision mount

Badger ordinance coaxial range finder mount

Larue LT845

MPA BA mount with Pic rail

Audere has diving board options, and something cool coming at SHOT!

Anyone know if the mbrace or reptilla would fit with a nx8 2.5-20?

The Reptilia will not. I emailed them in regards to that very setup about 2 weeks ago and they said they had some new diving board options coming soon.

Appreciate the response. I figured it would not. Thanks!!

i have an impact 4000 mounted on the left side of some area 419 rings with an nx8 2.5-20 , if you want it top mounted i believe they just came out with a lower diving board for the one piece mount that should work with the nx8

That looks prettt nice. Ill email them to see if it fits. Sucks they are out of stock though

i believe it will fit the nx8 and clear the bell

i'll be switching over to the one piece mount to get up to the 1.54" height but will probably leave my impact side mounted. i have the impact mounted to a unity tactical riser with an adm qd lever and it makes taking it off and putting it back on easy

here's how i have it mounted

I've run mine on 2x Spuhr low Raptar mounts (on an ISMS unimount and hunting unimount) and on a Era Tac on bolt guns and have run it on the top ring cap pic rail (not Raptar mount) on an old Badger Unimount and have 30 and 34mm Vortex mounts/diving boards coming in for other gas guns.

This is the exact thread I was looking for. My Reptilia ROF 34mm Diving board wont clear the bell on my Steiner T6Xi 3-18. Am I out of luck for the Reptilia mount in this case? Seems like in this case only side mounting would be possible.

@the_assman : Is this setup still working for you? i figured it might not be great to mount the Impact 4000 hanging off a tube-mounted clamp. No issues with it holding zero or affecting the optic at all?

that setup worked fine without any issues , the unity tactical mount with the adm qd lever always seemed to rtz within an moa and it was removed and reinstalled alot. i've since swapped from the area419 match rings to their one piece mount , i was going to top mount an aimpoint acro but tried the impact out on their low diving board and it will probably stay mounted there

mounted to the side works good if your shooting from a static position but it makes the rifle unbalanced and chunky feeling for just about everything else

mind sharing a photo of how much that diving board clears your bell? I was looking at the 419 mounts as well, look like they'd clear my Steiner bell (which looks to have similar angle as your NF). Thanks

i did have to recontour the bottom of the diving board around the bell of the scope some. with the bell so close to the turrets there's no room to move the scope forward in the mount and i didn't want the additional height of the higher diving board

Thank you immensely for sharing this. Yeah I’m likely going to remove some material as well to get it to fit. Glad you got it dialed in and again thank you

Here’s the 1.5” Badger Condition One with their low-height Impact 4000 CLIF rail:

I don’t actually own an Impact 4000, but I noticed that a LOT of diving board systems are STUPID high for the newer generation of WMLRFs like the MRF Xe, Raptar Xe, and MARS. So I tried the Impact CLIF and it is perfect. Just good to know for folks not running Impact 4ks.
