Serious recoil calls for serious mounting. The Sportsmatch DM70 is engineered for shooters who demand rock-solid scope security — especially when using powerful spring or gas-ram air rifles where recoil can ruin lesser mounts and damage your optics.
Built in the UK to exceptional tolerances, this 1-piece high mount is made to accommodate 30mm scope tubes and delivers the "Dampa” effect that is designed to cushion and manage the sharp recoil impulse generated by high-powered air rifles.
Key Features at a Glance:
- 30mm tube compatibility — ideal for modern scopes with enhanced light transmission.
- 1-piece construction — maximises rigidity and alignment for consistent accuracy.
- Dampa rubber brushes recoil damping system — protects your scope from shock, extending its life.
- High profile — gives extra clearance for large objective lenses and easy eye alignment.
- Double clamp design — ensures a vice-like grip on the rifle’s dovetail rail.
- Fits standard 9.5–11.5mm dovetail rails — widely compatible across many rifles.
- Built-in arrestor pin — stops rearward movement under heavy recoil.
- Made in the UK — with the precision and quality shooters have trusted for decades.
Mount Height & Scope Clearance
The DM70 offers a 23mm height from the top of the rail to the bottom of the scope tube. This makes it suitable for scopes with objective lens sizes up to around 56mm, depending on rifle design and barrel diameter.
This height ensures:
- Comfortable eye alignment for most shooters.
- Ample clearance between the scope bell and rifle barrel, preventing contact or pressure on the optic.
- Room for lens covers or accessories like sunshades in most cases.
If you’re fitting a large objective scope — like a 6-24x50 or 4-16x56 — this mount gives you the elevation needed without going into extra-high territory, keeping your setup balanced and aligned.
Is the DM70 Right for You?
If you’re shooting a springer or gas-ram rifle (like the HW97, Air Arms TX200, or similar) and using a 30mm tube scope, this mount is made for you. It’s especially useful if you’ve ever experienced scope creep, shifting zero, or even internal scope damage — common signs that your current mounts aren’t up to the task.
The high profile is perfect for rifles with larger scopes or for shooters who need a little extra height to get that perfect cheek weld and eye alignment.
