Element XT 1 Inch Low Dovetail Rifle Scope Ring Mount
If you want a simple, reliable low-profile mounting solution for a 1-inch scope, the Element Optics XT 1 Inch Low Dovetail Rifle Scope Ring Mount is a solid no-nonsense choice. It’s designed to give you a lightweight but secure way to mount your optic without adding unnecessary bulk or complexity. The low height keeps your scope sitting nice and close to the rifle, which helps with a more natural cheek weld and a consistent shooting position. Despite being budget-friendly in the XT range, it still feels properly solid, with CNC-machined aluminium construction and tight tolerances that keep everything aligned once it’s torqued down correctly. It’s basically a fit-it-once, trust-it mount for simple and dependable setups.

A T15 Torx bit is typically required for fitting and adjustment.
