Matt Little and Frank Proctor have run Aero mounts pretty extensively and both have the background to decide what would or would not hold up. They’re fairly common in competition. Most of the issues I’m aware of occurred during installation; the Aero mounts don’t appear to be tolerant of torque issues when the rings are tightened. Once they’re properly installed, though, they seem to hold up ok.
All that said, while I own one Aero SPR mount and it’s never given me any trouble, I run mostly NF Unimounts for magnified optics just because the amount of material on the Aero just isn’t confidence inspiring to me. I’ll fully acknowledge that’s probably mostly in my head, though.
