Abstract: A scope mount and mounting system is disclosed. An example scope mount includes at least one ring mount to receive a scope body. The ring mount has an upper ring and a lower ring. The example scope mount also includes mating interface surfaces between the upper ring and the lower ring. In an example, the mating interface surfaces are cracked. In another example, the mating interface surfaces are precision machined. The example scope mount also includes a pliable insert having a spherical outer body to fit within the ring mount and secure the scope body between the upper ring and the lower ring while accommodating misalignment of the scope body within the ring mount. The example scope mount also includes a rail lock to secure the ring mount in both axes on a rail of a firearm.
