I think it's a great approach to shooting big stuff long ranges, and even better for shooting little stuff to (comparatively) long ranges.

Hakan told me 1.46 is for ARs and 1.18 is for bolt rifles. I have 44.4s on my AIAWs/SB 5-25x56s.

Re: Spuhr 44.4 MOA Mount - Too much cant?
It all depends on your scope.
Maximum tilt for a scope if you still wanna be able to zero at 100 yards are half the total elevation.
So if your scope is a single turn, you have 13mils of elevation, that is 44,4 moa.
That means that the teoreticly tilt for that scope is 22 moa.
So a tilt of 20-25 moa works fine.
If you have a MIL double turn you have a total elevation of 26 mils, the double.
If you have the MOA double turn your total is 56 moa.
I would recomend you to use direct mount as that is more ridgid and a better solution than sandwish-picatinny.
In such case we have both 7mils/24 moa and 13mils/44.4 moa mounts in 1,35" height.
If you wanna use picatinny, the mount is 1,18" that you should use.

Is the 1.18" or 1.46" height measured from the base of the mount to the center axis of the ring?
Thanks.

Re: Spuhr 44.4 MOA Mount - Too much cant?
Why not just use the 44.4 moa mount designed for the TRG? It mounts directly to the dovetail and incorporates a recoil lug. The only height available is 1.38 and it should clear the barrel provided it is factory, and trust me, you have less elevation in that scope than I do in my 5-25 and I'm switching to the 44 moa mount.
I'm sweating the objective because the barrel is not factory and it doesn't clear by much with the 24 moa mount. I may have to remove the lens cover to clear.

Re: Spuhr 44.4 MOA Mount - Too much cant?
12,5-50 have less elevation than 26 mils so 44,4 Moa is to much.
Better order the 7 mils24 Moa mount or the 5-25 scope that is designed for 13mil/44,4moa

Re: Spuhr 44.4 MOA Mount - Too much cant?
It depends on which version of the 12-50 you have. I have a multi turn 1/8 moa 12-50 and there is over 100 moa total travel. My multi turn turrets are 5 turns at 15 moa per turn but there is more travel available on either side.
