The ADM mount is nice, but I'm not too happy with the lever adjustment. It seems either too loose or too light on one of the levers. I prefer Laure for overall quality. |

Still wish there was a wider portion of the "rib" in between the rings to give a nice wide flat spot left to right on these things to get a good landing spot for the feeler gauge.
