Are lightweight mounts strong enough to do the job?

I would think all shown would be acceptable for MOST users. The worst shifted 1.35"@1,000yds.

Good info, just putting some perspective. The larue will shift .78"@1,000yds.

As a larue user, I will say the bobro is rediculous and is a testament to their engineering.

This is so far from scientific. Tiny sample size. Leave it to Internet armchairs to take an article and run with it as gospel.
Need more science.

I think your decimal points are off...

1 MOA is roughly 1" @100 yards

0.135 MOA.... 0.135" at 100 yards

Yes, they are off. How was thi testing done? What facts were not presented here?

Facts are being presented, you are ignoring them due to your personal vested interest. I suspect they used the same equipment we and others use, since the results all mirror themselves. If you want more publicly available info go track down the back issue of recoil.

Even Larue himself OTS said those results are close to what they got in their testing...

I am surprised that ADM fared so poorly on pendulum.

ADM did better than the Larue on pendulum impact, ADM did worse on fail to zero and a few other test that I wont go into.

Overall it graded out as good as a Larue, but was not as good as the other offerings at the time.

How did Bobro compare to a fixed mount of good quality (NF, Badger, etc.)?

Started braking scope bases before shift on pendulum with most quality one piece mounts.

So sort answer is no, but the required force would damage the scope before any noticeable difference.

I don't mean to be vague, but some things can be discussed but not in great detail.

LOL - yeah right. I have no brand loyalty and own so much different gear it would make your head spin.

All I have is my own experience (extremely good) and the many happy LaRue mount users out in the wild. I also have 3 ADM Mounts, one BoBro mount and have had 4 different GG&G mounts (none currently.) Show me. Show me. Show me.

When I hear of things differing from my own experience on multiple 308 AR rifles using LaRue mounts - I get interested real quick. Especially because a lot of folks love to bash Mark because he's been less than friendly at times. I like to challenge "popular trends" of sheeple product bashing and blind product love/following, whoever/whatever the manufacturer is. Maybe I need to start throwing some of my own gear on the pavement.

EDIT: Specifically with the LaRue LT104s, yes that mag article shows RTZ (.076) within Mark's stated specs of "It's somewheres in the range of .060"-.085" ... at a 100 yds." -- I personally am perfectly fine with this.

I'm talking about the other bashing that has been mentioned.
