Tier One Mounts
Tier One Mounts for Precision and Reliable Alignment
At R. Macleod & Son, we stock a carefully selected range of Tier One mounts, designed for shooters who demand absolute precision, repeatability, and rock-solid performance. Manufactured in the UK using advanced CNC machining technology, Tier One products are widely respected for their engineering quality, strength, and consistent accuracy in the field.
Whether you are stalking in challenging conditions, shooting at extended distances, or competing in precision disciplines, Tier One mounts provide the stability and confidence needed to keep your optics perfectly aligned shot after shot.
British Engineering Built for Real Shooting Demands
Tier One mounts are designed and manufactured in the UK, combining modern engineering techniques with strict quality control. Each component is machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring a precise fit between rifle and optic. This level of accuracy helps eliminate movement under recoil and maintains consistent zero, even during repeated use in demanding environments.
Lightweight Strength Without Compromise
One of the key strengths of Tier One mounts is their ability to balance weight and durability. By using high-grade materials and precision CNC machining, these mounts remain lightweight without sacrificing structural integrity. This makes them particularly well suited to stalking rifles and long-range setups where reducing unnecessary weight whilst maintaining strength is essential.
Designed for Consistent Zero Retention
In long-range shooting, consistency is everything. Tier One mounts are engineered to provide exceptional repeatability so that your scope returns to zero even after removal or repeated recoil. This reliability is especially important for hunters and shooters who rely on their equipment in unpredictable field conditions where performance must remain consistent.
Ideal for Hunting and Precision Shooting
Tier One mounts are used by a wide range of shooters, from mountain stalkers carrying lightweight setups over long distances to precision shooters engaging targets at extended range. Their stability and alignment accuracy make them equally effective in rough field conditions and controlled shooting environments.
Built for Optic Security and Alignment Accuracy
Every mount is designed to hold optics securely in place whilst maintaining perfect alignment with the rifle’s bore. This helps improve shot consistency and reduces the need for repeated re-zeroing. Attention to detail in machining and design ensures a secure, repeatable platform for a wide range of scopes and configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I choose scope mounts?
When selecting scope mounts, consider your rifle's mounting system, scope tube diameter, objective lens size, and intended shooting application. Mount height is particularly important, as it should provide sufficient clearance whilst maintaining a comfortable shooting position. Choosing high-quality mounts helps ensure reliable zero retention and consistent performance in the field.
2. Should I buy a 30mm or 34mm scope for UK hunting?
Both 30mm and 34mm scope tubes are popular choices among UK hunters. A 30mm scope is often lighter and well suited to traditional stalking setups, whilst a 34mm scope can offer increased adjustment range and is commonly found on long-range and precision-focused optics. The best choice will depend on your rifle, shooting style, and intended use.
3. What are the best scope mounts for deer stalking?
The best scope mounts for deer stalking are those that provide a secure fit, reliable zero retention, and minimal added weight. Precision-engineered mounts such as those from Tier One are popular among stalkers due to their strength, repeatability, and ability to withstand demanding field conditions.
4. What advice can you give for fitting scope rings correctly?
Scope rings should be installed according to the manufacturer's specifications, with screws tightened evenly to the recommended torque settings. Care should be taken to ensure the scope is correctly aligned, levelled, and positioned for comfortable eye relief. Proper installation helps maintain accuracy and prevents unnecessary stress on the optic.
5. What is a 20 MOA rail for?
A 20 MOA rail provides additional elevation adjustment for long-range shooting by angling the scope slightly downward towards the barrel. This allows shooters to retain more usable elevation adjustment within the scope, making it easier to engage targets at extended distances.
