Reviews & Ratings for Scalarworks LEAP/Scope Mount — 21 reviews — Page 1

I know this mount is now discontinued but if you have one of these keep an eye on your rings. I've had this mount for 6 months and I took my gun out of the safe today and noticed the mount was cracked. I have several Scalarwork mounts but this is my first issue.

Purchased two of these, one went on a 5.56 rifle and the other went on a .308. After two shooting sessions (less than 200 rounds on 5.56, 100 rounds on .308) both mounts failed completely, the hinges on the top of the scope ring broke like cheap aluminum. Not only would this not hold a zero, but it caused both scopes to walk back and grind against mount. I now have two Vortex HDs with what is hopefully just cosmetic damage. This is wildly unacceptable for any serious mount, and for this to happen on something priced at $400 is mind boggling.

I can only assume this is some kind of 'rona-related QC issue. I have heard nothing but good things about Scalarworks mounts and for them to break like cheap airsoft parts (damaging some very high end optics along the way) is beyond frustrating. If I could I'd get my money back and buy different mounts, but I am stuck RMA'ing as I am outside the return window for OP.

Excellent optic mount. I pared it gen 3 razor. I’ve had it on and off a few times, my zero stays true.
Super easy to set up. Build quality and finish are excellent. It provides everything you would expect at this price point

This is my first ever mount, I didn't want to mess around with levels etc. Also I wanted a light weight rock solid mount. Got it all with this. It's a bit expensive, but if you don't have a bunch of scopes buying a level kit is about 50$ for a decent one. This was for a specific purpose but definitely will buy another!

It was super easy mounting my scope with the Scalarworks LEAP. The self leveling large flathead screw on the bottom made it quick and easy, and I removed the red screw before mounting it on my rifle. It's nice that the scope can be removed easily, and remounted without effecting the sighting.

Amazing simplicity, yet very well engineered. Leveling screw is genius. Low profile quick detachment, no bulky levers. Very easy set up. Very much worth its price. I would not hesitate to buy another.

This is the lightest QD scope mount you can find. It's also got a nifty self-leveling feature built-in.
I really can't understand how Scalarworks can justify charging what they do for this; It's a 5-star product but i took off a star for being at least $100 too expensive.

Expensive, lightweight, tool less removal and no levels required because of that screw in the bottom of mount, brilliant idea that other scope mounts will be using in the future. Great product, very innovative. Bought another.

Amazing mount! Super easy to take on and off and holds zero every time, it’s a bit pricey but if you want the best you have to pay for it. It went on a vortex genIII 1-10, can’t beat that combo. Worth a one time investment to me

This mount is easy to set up and CAN be easy to break your optic with the auto-level screw if you're not careful. I am currently running this with a Trijicon Credo 1-8x28 on an AR platform chambered in .556. When torqued properly, the optic has no play and mounts quickly. It's not EXTREMELY fast to mount or unmount but still faster than having to loosen a screw with a hexwrench. I have two of these now and I have no complaints after firing about 1,000 rounds with one.
