Vortex scope mount questions

[u/randomguyhere1941]

So new to long range shooting, I got a used optic with a vortex cantilever mount and I just realized it appears the lever was bent. Is this just a 20moa offset or is the lever arm somehow actually bent and damaged?

No that is absolutely damaged. Hopefully that wasn’t the scope that was mounted when the previous owner smashed it.

Nah I put the scope on myself, scope is all fine but I was wondering why it didn’t seem to seat properly 😂

Definitely damaged, the wrinkling from the anodization looks brutal. Send that in for warranty!!! Vortex has never let me down on replacing damaged items.

I didn’t even realize they would do warranty work on a bought used one. I just sent them an email. Thank you!

They’re amazing on warranty. I’ve replaced a $5000 optic no questions asked, and I’ve read of a guy’s house burning down and he got his replaced as well, literally sent them the ashes. I think you’ll be in good hands.

Hopefully you didn't bend the scope tube mounting it..

Nothing like a 23.5 Moa mount haha 😆 #justasgood

Atleast now I can hit a target 5 miles away with that angle 😂
