Athlon Optics 30Mm 20 Moa 1.5'' Cantilever Scope Mount

The Athlon Optics 30mm 20 MOA 1.5" Cantilever Scope Mount is a no-nonsense option for hunters and shooters who need a rock-solid mount without the extra bulk. Built around a 30mm tube diameter to accommodate modern mid-to-high power optics, this cantilever design extends your scope forward over the receiver, giving you the eye relief and sight picture you need on rifles where barrel clearance or cheek weld matters. The 20 MOA elevation builtin is purpose-built for long-distance hunting and precision shooting, letting you dial elevation without maxing out your scope's adjustment range.

Cantilever mounts excel on modern tactical and hunting rifles where you want maximum flexibility in scope positioning. By mounting partially on the receiver and extending forward, this design frees up real estate and keeps your sightline lower and more streamlined. The 1.5" offset height sits your optic at a practical plane for most modern rifle stocks and shooting positions.

Athlon has designed this mount to avoid snag points and sharp edges—a low-profile footprint that won't catch on brush, gear, or your pack when you're moving through thick country or around your truck. Whether you're glassing from a ridge, ranging prairie dogs, or dialing for distance at the range, this mount delivers the stability and simplicity hunters and plinkers have relied on.

Frequently Asked Questions

What scopes will fit this 30mm cantilever mount?

This mount accepts any rifle scope with a 30mm tube diameter. That covers most modern hunting and tactical scopes in the 3-12x to 4-16x magnification range and many higher-power optics.

What does the 20 MOA builtin mean?

The 20 MOA of elevation is machined into the mount itself, angling the scope upward relative to the barrel. This gives you more downward adjustment range inside your scope without hitting the bottom of its adjustment knob—crucial if you're shooting at extended distance or using a heavy cartridge drop over range.

Why use a cantilever mount instead of a standard two-piece mount?

Cantilever mounts position the scope further forward, improving eye relief and giving you a wider field of view. They're especially useful on modern rifles where you want a lower mounting plane or need clearance for the barrel or accessories.

Will this mount work on my rifle?

Cantilever mounts are designed for modern Picatinny rails. If your rifle has a flat-top receiver with a standard Picatinny rail, this mount will fit. Some older or specialized rifles may require different hardware—verify your rifle's rail system before purchasing.
