Warne X-SKEL 30mm Gen 2 MSR Cantilever Mount | XSKEL30TW

The Warne X-SKEL Gen 2 is a one-piece, extended cantilever mount engineered for MSR-style rifles. CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum with steel threaded inserts and skeletonized ring caps, it balances low weight with a rigid mounting platform for 30mm-tube optics. The design positions optics at an MSR “ideal height” and shifts the optic forward to increase available eye relief on AR-pattern platforms.

Common applications include mounting LPVOs for competition and range use, and equipping AR-style rifles for target work or precision training where consistent eye relief and a stable return-to-zero interface are important.

The X-SKEL Gen 2 focuses on weight reduction where possible while retaining strength in critical areas: skeletonized body and caps cut mass without compromising the steel-on-steel contact points. That balance makes this mount a practical choice for shooters who want a rigid, lightweight platform for low-power variable optics on AR-pattern rifles.
