Just posting this to see what peoples thoughts are after reading the broken Talley thread. I have switched three of my tikkas this past year over to the one piece DNZ mounts and they seem pretty solid and are lightweight. They all seem to be well aligned and did not require lapping either.
Other then not being the prettiest mount out there has anyone had any issues with theirs? I dont think they look bad with larger scopes, but have seen pics of them on rifles with small compact scopes and that is where I think they look bad.

I really like them. The biggest downside to them is ring spacing. The two piece sets give you a little more latitude on the ability to reverse some of them (some not). The one piece you can end up with a lot of un-sprung scope weight past the rings if you're using a longer scope. If the spacing is close to the ends of the scope tube I really like them, the 4 screw tactical's the most.

The DNZ mounts are great. Well rounded at the edges so they don't catch a sleeve like the Talley mounts. Never had one break.

Good, solid and ugly. Tried them and ended up pulling them off my rifles or sending them off on rifles I've sold.

I have never tried the 2 pc mount and wonder if that might give a little more room?

I’ve used them. I had a couple screws that stripped out quicker than I expected. They sent me a handful right out. It’s a well made mount for the money.

I had one on a rifle but changed to something I liked looking at better. They are ugly.

I was gifted a SWFA 3-9 HD and a DNZ 1 piece mount for my Tikka T3 lite 308w. 3K+ rounds later it still holds zero. It looks pretty good to me.

A solution to a non-existent problem, and fuggly. However, American made so way above Burris those sellout commie dic slobbering SOBs.
Their non-firearms product line includes imports. Blah blah.

Is this a beauty contest ? Or holding your scope tighter that a nuns ....
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

How many DNZs are on winning shooter's rifles in any discipline? If'n they were a solution to a problem, they'd be.... Fact is, Picatinny and friends work perfectly.... Yeah Nutz...
