I actually like the Bassett Machine mount over the two you have mentioned. One attachment point makes it easy to remove and it goes right back to zero when re-installed
Sadlak as mentioned or Bassett. The Springfield mount has a bad reputation although I have never owned one personally. The Bassett is easier to mount and remount but the Sadlak is lower if that’s a concern.
I have Bassetts on mine. I just really like the easy on easy off. They hold zero really well. I wish I would have picked up an ARMS 18 before they went out of sight.
No experience with a Sadlack, just an ARMS 18.
However, Springfields pitifull excuses for mounts, yes. Both of the different itenerations that I foolish tried, now live elsewhere.
As mentioned, ARMS 18 really works, if your dead set on Sadlack, sure why not? I hear good thing about them
The Brookfield Precision mount was the "official" one back in the day. (At least they had a government contract.) The Sadlak mount is identical to the Brookfield, except that the Sadlak has regularly-spaced Picatinny cross slots rather than irregular Weaver cross slots. This is undoubtedly an improvement.
I have the Bassett that I got right after Mr. Bassett passed away, his daughter Romey (sp) sold me and her and her uncle showed me how to mount it, great mount that I can co-witness with. I dont use a cheek riser, I hate the way it makes the rifle look, I can remove the Bassett mount easily when I want to and it goes back to zero when remounted.
