    RRS did something with their KILO mount I greatly appreciate. It has a HARD lock on the Kilo, and can be used for an adapter to a click adjustment mechanism that will hold zero. Or at least as far as the kilo-mechanism interface. It isn't a slip fit like the factory mount is.
     
    Interested. This looks to have a clamp design as opposed to a slip design like the factory mount. How is this a marked improvement? What will it do for me?
     
    1. Directly mounts into an arca type clamp. No plate needed.
    2. Small enough to stay mounted and fit the sig case
    3. Hard clamp instead of slip fit. Valuable in my use Case as I use an Elcan mount for the base and click it onto the spotter reticle.
    4. Cheaper than the LRi
    5. Excellent build quality
    6. Will take a manfrotto plate.

    Where did you get your Elcan mount?
     
    Simple piece of 1/8” thick 1” alum box. Threaded m5-0.8 to take the screws from the elcan mount. Two holes, 1 Big 1 little to put a 1/4-20 hex head screw in the mount.

    Zero at 1km and the offset at 2km will match the opposite side offset. So the beam is 3” high and 3” left at the laser and 3x3” right at 2km. Easy to live with.

    That's a sweet setup! What I meant though was where did you source the actual Elcan mount?
