I had my Leupold pop off during a training excersize, so obviously the mount they come with is no good. But I'm happy I found this mount. After instaling it you can instantly feel the difference. It is much more secure, and you can take it on and off in a hurry without fear of loosing your zero as long as you mount it in the same place. A little pricey but a definate must buy for anyone considering using the CQ/T

I like the throw lever design versus the nut and bolt design on the scope maker's bracket. The mount clamps on the flattop rail securely although I had to tighten the mount screws after firing the rifle the first time. I may end up putting locktite on the screws which hold the scope on the mount. This mount places the scope low enough for a good cheekweld when firing the rifle, verses having the scope mounted on the rifle's carrying handle where the scope is too high, requiring holding your head up off the stock.
