ZCO mount or Spuhr or Geissele mount for ZCO527?

[500grains]

Any advantages of one over another?

Is one more durable than the others?

Many thanks.

Geissele doesn’t offer a diving board for their 36mm mount as far as I know in case that’s a factor. I went with area 419 and I’ve been happy. Sphur is reputed to be the most durable, but I think that’s mainly just talk. I’ve owned two Sphur mounts. Used numerous Geissele mounts overseas and never had a loss of zero even on guns that get horribly mistreated.

can't speak on a comparison, but the Geissele is a high quality piece. Very solid and very well made.

I like Spuhr and F3R Machine mounts quiet a bit.

Are F3R still in business?

ZCO, Hawkins, ARC, GDI, and many others make excellent mounts. Just look at the specific height and features you are looking for and you will be good to go.

Many people have been looking at 36mm Cantilever mounts with ZCO and GDI being two new additions

My 527 is in a Spuhr currently and I'm very happy with all my Spuhr mounts. If I went another direction I’d most likely try the Gray Ops mount.

Yes, they are still in business... https://f3rmachine.com

Recently been on an Area 419 kick so far as mounts go. Even got a spare 36mm/1.5”/20 MOA kicking around too.

Badger C1 max. Had the 1.5/20MOA for mine and the RTZ was spot on the money. No shifts under recoil or abuse in the truck/at a match.

That’s my #2 and what I was running before the A419.

I was going to try out the 419 but they were out of stock when I needed one. So now I have the badger

I’ve used several spuhr and have been a victim of the bar cracking. As many others have as well. If you search through some recent threads you’ll see it’s a more common problem then you’d want

I have a badger C1 sitting here if I decide to switch eventually

That said both my ZCO 527 and NF 735 atacr have spuhr on them currently

I’ve migrated back to almost solely badger over the last year. It’ll be hard to make me want to swap, and I mean sudden onset of problems from badger to sway my confidence. I’ve seen a set of rings break, but one set in almost 20 years of using, being around them is good odds to me.
