I've actually had pretty good luck with the Monstrum mounts, I have seen a lot of reviews about stripped threads though. I switched most of the Monstrum mounts out for Aero mounts now and only have a couple Monstrums left and don't move them around.
I also have one on my AR .22. No problems with that one yet, but it doesn't have to deal with much recoil force, of course.
I probably could knock out and replace the bolts, if I really wanted to reuse it.
I’m running a Trijicon Credo HX 2.5-10x56. It’s a hunting rig, and at over 25 oz. it’s certainly no lightweight, but neither are AR10s in general. For a lighter weight hunting rig I have better options. The glass is excellent for the price and it excels in low light.
10-12 power with a 308 dial.... What are you wanting to do with the rifle? If you're worried about the "dial," I'll assume you're shooting farther than Point Blank Range. What you want to do with the rifle dictates what you need from the scope as well - I don't have the same scope on my short barreled hog hunting upper that I have on my long range competition upper, because the tasks have different demands.
About the lightest magnified setup I can think of would be a Leup. Feeedom 1-4X20mm on an Aero Ultralight mount. That would come in at about 13 oz total. But appropriate for an AR10??
A small red dot might be lighter, but no magnification. But for a hog gun it would be fine
