Vortex Sport Cantilever Mount

Yes, you will need a torque driver with a T-25 Torx bit. Using the correct bit is important to avoid stripping the screws, and a torque driver ensures you hit the recommended 15-18 in-lbs for the cap screws and 30 in-lbs for the base screws.

Yes, it is fully compatible with standard Picatinny rail systems. It is designed to clamp securely onto the rail to maintain zero even under recoil.

This mount weighs 5.43 ounces. It is constructed from 6061 aluminum to balance structural durability with a lightweight profile, keeping your rifle setup manageable.

A horizontally split design means the rings are divided into a top and bottom half along the horizontal axis. This makes it easier to place your scope into the mount and align it before tightening the top caps down.
