ive got one on a Kimber Adirondak in 308.. super lightweight rifle (less than 6lbs loaded with the optic mounted).. its got more recoil than my 300 H&H...
probably 200 rounds through the Adirondak at this point.. no issues with the swaro at all..
its been to Africa.. hunted all over TX... and will be making a trip to chase elk in Idaho later this year.. I trust it completely..

Mine is a Z3 3-10x42 and has been on a couple of different rifles. It currently lives on a 308 bolt action practice rifle and has held up well for ~3k rounds in total.

Should be no problems. I have a Z3 3-9x36 on 5 pound Kimber in 300 WSM.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
