So I love Spuhr mounts and have them on a number of my rifles. However, I found a USO 3.2-17x for a great deal and couldn't pass on it. However, I ordered a Spuhr 30mm, 6mil/20moa mount and the USO has too much bulk (turrets + illum) to fit in the mount.

I need recommendations for a one piece mount with 20moa cant, that has enough space for all the bulk in the USO's turret housing and illum knob. What are you using for your USOs?

I like Badger. Not sure about the cant and the particular mount you need, but I use their 0 MOA mounts. Their Recon mount is great for USO's and AR's. Be sure you get the right one because they make a short and a long unimount.
 
When I was researching a Spuhr mount for a Tangent scope I saw a model recommended for USO's. Might want to dig a bit more on Spuhr's site. Seems like I had to click on a specific mount to see the specific uses for the mount.

I googled Spuhr US Optics and came up with this:
https://www.milehighshooting.com/spuhr-sp-4603b-34mm-picatinny-mount-6mil-20-6moa-1-5/


The description mentions the turret housing size. It gives you 3.228 inches from ring to ring. The only 3.2-17 I found specs for on USO's site was 2.06 inches. This may not be your scope though. The 3.2-17 TPal listed on MidwayUSA has a derived turret housing length of 72.4mm (see below pic)which if my math is correct is 2.85 inches.
