Finally got a night cap so I can get away from the skull crusher

What's currently the suggested route to go looking at a simplistic 14 set up on a nightcap?

Not super high speed low drag, or tactical Timmy here... Just hunting
 
I use a totally low speed USGI rhino and j-arm ... (I got 2 j-arms ... took them apart and assembled one good one out of the parts :D )

wilcox 3 hole shroud ...
 
I'll keep my eyes open for a 2

I've also been told switching to the dovetail vs the bayonet when possible is a little better

Rhino 1 mount and another J arm seemed inexpensive enough that I won't mind throwing them away later if I upgrade.

Once I get a shroud now it should be plug and play with the rhino 2 anyway is my understanding...
 
I also use a "real" mount ... a norotos loSto and an IC bridge ... if in a "no wobble" frame of mind ... but they are heavier ...

I actually find the main weakness of the rhino/j-arm combo I use above the the screw that holds the 14 on ... I have to retighten it during the evening ...
