    Mine is in a FDE ADM recon mount. It fits and functions as it should.

    I'm using the Bobro standard mount with the same scope. Works great especially if you plan on adding a cat tail.

    Bobro does sell a slightly extended mount.

    Grant,

    Did you order it direct from Bobro? Did you receive it yet?

    I e-mailed the owner about the problem.

    I have not received it yet (as they are out of 30mm rings).

    Thanks

    Shooting style because I use a standard LT104 with it further back.

    Grant, did you ever hear back? I just realized I never got a return email to my inquiry. I'll have to call.

    Thumbs up

    I just received the "new" version of the Bobro extended 30mm mount for my Vortex Razor HD 1-6 and thought I'd add a data point for those trying to decide on a mount like I was last week.

    Short version: It's perfect for me.

    I use my rifle for very local 3 gun matches and am not very experienced but like nice stuff.

    I was torn between the slightly forward and the extended version. After doing much searching and guessing I got the extended version. I'm very glad I did. I think I would have been disappointed with the slightly forward version with my "nose to charging handle" shooting style. I ended up with the rear of the scope turrets even with the front of the standard receiver and that seems to work perfect for me. The Extended version can be mounted further back if desired so there is no reason not to get it other then the slightly foreword version "looks" stiffer. There is still plenty of room for a BUIS behind the extended version with almost 2" to spare in my case.

    The "new" Bobro version has a lower rail section behind the rings so there is plenty of room for the vortex zoom ring now and it looks like there is enough room for a cat tail. I had planned on relieving the old version of the mount to make the Vortex fit but am glad that I didn't need to.

    I considered ADM and Larue also. I love my Larue mounts but thought the Bobro system looked even better. The Bobro system goes on easier with no adjustments and zero (that I can tell) rail wear. Because of the easy on and off I won't hesitate to take the Bobro off for cleaning or to use the scope as a monocular if I want to see something that I don't want to point a rifle at. I didn't like taking the Larue off unnecessarily (which may or may not be justified). I feel a little bad paying $239 for a scope mount but I'm very happy with my purchase.

    Great news, Greg! Mind telling us where/how you got yours? I need one for the Vortex I plan on buying soon.

    Order it directly from Bobro. As of two weeks ago all of his newer extended mounts will have the new drop riser that works with the Vortex 1-6x
