Talley Manufacturing Kimber 8400 Medium 1'' Scope Mounts

The Talley Manufacturing Kimber 8400 Medium 1" Scope Mounts deliver a solid, lightweight solution for mounting optics on your Kimber 8400. Built as a one-piece unit that combines the ring and base into a single casting, these mounts eliminate the traditional ring-to-base joint—a design that reduces overall weight while cranking up rigidity where it counts. If you're running a modern precision rifle and want your scope locked down tight without unnecessary heft, this is the kind of engineering that pays off in the field.

Each ring cap spans 5/8" wide and fastens with four TORX screws, giving you plenty of clamping surface to keep larger objective scopes from creeping or shifting under recoil. The unified construction means fewer moving parts and fewer places for play to develop over time. This design comes from Mel Forbes of New Ultralight Arms, a name synonymous with no-compromise rifle building. If you're familiar with that ethos—light, strong, and dependable—you'll recognize it here.

Talley mounts are purpose-built for hunters and shooters who won't compromise on stability or weight savings. Whether you're glassing from a mountain ridge or working a longer-range setup, these medium-height mounts are sized to clear your Kimber 8400's receiver while keeping your cheek weld and sight picture where they need to be.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these mounts fit my Kimber 8400?

Yes—these Talley mounts are specifically designed for the Kimber 8400 in medium height. Medium rings will clear the rifle's receiver and put your scope at the proper height for standard cheek weld.

What does the one-piece design actually do for me?

A unified ring-and-base casting eliminates the joint between separate ring and base components. This means less weight, stronger overall rigidity, and fewer points where flex or slop can develop. It's the kind of detail that matters if you're running a light, accurate rifle and want your optic platform to match.

Can these mounts hold larger objective scopes?

The 5/8" ring cap width and four TORX screws per cap are designed to securely clamp both medium and large objective scopes, keeping them from shifting under recoil or field use.

What's the connection to New Ultralight Arms?
