I cant find the thread, but there was just another user having some problems getting zero'ed that I believe were attributed to the fact that it has a built in 20moa lift.. I think Nikon only really came out with it because of their M-223 scopes.

If you want a similar product, and like the idea of keeping the money here in the US of A, tale a look at the Freedom Reaper by DNZ. Made in North Carolina. China has enough of our money.
 http://www.opticsplanet.net/dnz-products-freedom-reaper-5-66-picatinny-rail-1in-mount.html I have 1" 1-3 in the Freedom Reaper on a Rock River. Also four other DNZ mounts on various rifles. I like the fit, finish and design. On a standard rifle, screwed directly to the receiver, it looks like it grew out of the top of the gun. One thing I like as a retailer, is that if I call DZN with a question, in about 60 seconds I can talk to a machinist. They know their stuff, and are mighty proud of their product. Mark H. |

Mark, Tank you for the post. I was on your site today, how would you compare the Nikon vs. the DNZ vs. the Leupold Mark 2 IMS? I bought a Bright Strike BTL Quick Cam ROTO-LOC from you guys a few weeks back for my duty belt and my duty carry light and I was pleased with opticsplanet.com, and your prices on many things are better than most...

The Nikon mount is made by Warne. Are you sure they aren't an American company? It's a great mount and with a built in 20 MOA a solic choice if you don't need a quick release option.
Just checked. Warne is an American company. Seems someone should do some research before peddling different products. |

I've been using the Nikon M-223 Mounts for 2 years now. Yes, even before I started doing some work for Nikon I chose to use buy this mount. Warne is a well known mount producer, excellent quality and value. I have yet to hear of one mount going bad.
Here's a pic of my wife shooting one of my AR's with a Nikon M-223 1-4 Rapid Action Turret scope and the M-223 Mount. Drop me a note if you have any questions. Bart Nikon Pro Staff Nikon M-223 1-4 Scope and Mount |

Not too mention according to him the money would go to China. I can sure tell you who will never get any of my business again. |

I can assure you I did not drive to tokyo to buy groceries with the money they paid me . Now that all that crap is out of the way nikon makes a quality product and I doubt they would go sub-par on anything they put there name on . I use there rifle scopes , cameras, and lense, with confidence. |

I have everything from their scopes to a D80. I was looking for feedback on people who are the M223, how do you like yours? |

Of course, why wouldn't they? Warne isn't walking away with Nikon profits on the mount either. Anyway, you are free to spend your money where you want. I didn't take any offense to his post. I don't understand why you are so bothered by it. That statement could be said about MANY of the popular mounts and rings here are using, that frankly, I do not want...IE the PA's and the PEPR's. |

I really wish there was a QD version of the M-223 mount. I didn't know Warne made the mount, now that I do I see that as another positive selling point. Everything I have ever purchased from Nikon has been of great quality and made me quite happy. I have a 1-4x M-223 scope, but I have it in a Bobro QD mount. Should I decide to make a dedicated scope only 5.56mm AR I will absolutely look at the M-223 mount. In that case I will probably go with a higher power M-223 scope also.

The M223 mount is extremely strong and has a built in 20 moa. I have 2 and will use them for every rifle that does not need QD mounts.

Got mine mounted up and the rifle bore sighted last night. Time to go to the range.
I really like the mount. It's rock solid and the quality is very good.  |

You guys are silly. Nikon is a japense company. I am waiting to hear back from the optics planet to hear what they think abut the DNZ vs. Leupold Vs. the Nikon...the Leupold has thumb screws, so that interests me. |
