Their Heavy Tactical One-Piece Scope Mount is a shining example of their commitment to durability, precision, and functionality, making it a must-have for serious shooters.

Hawkins Precision has built its reputation on crafting rifle accessories that deliver unmatched performance. Based in the USA, the company specializes in the design and manufacture of high-quality mounts, rings, and bottom metals.

Their ability to combine traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge design is what sets them apart in the industry.
Heavy Tactical One-Piece Scope Mount

Hawkins Precision’s Heavy Tactical One-Piece Scope Mount is the premier optic mount in their lineup. Designed for shooters who demand the very best, this mount features:
Triple Stainless Steel Cross Bolt Design: This ensures maximum stability and durability, even under heavy recoil.
Six Screw Caps: Providing a secure grip on the scope, the six screws help maintain zero during rugged use.
Integrated Bubble Level: This handy addition ensures precise leveling for long-range shots.
Picatinny Accessory Rail: Users have the flexibility to add or remove this rail based on their specific needs.
Available in 34mm, 35mm, and 36mm options, these mounts are 100% made in the USA and feature a corrosion-resistant black anodized finish. The Heavy Tactical mount comes in 0, 20, and 40 MOA cant configurations, catering to various shooting scenarios.
Hawkins Precision offers these mounts in two heights to suit different applications:
1.270" Height: Ideal for 56mm objectives with standard and heavy barrel contours.
1.500" Height: Designed for use with AR-style forends and provides compatibility with NV/Thermal clip-ons.
This range of options ensures that shooters can find the perfect fit for their specific rifle and optic setup.
Field Experience with Hawkins Precision Scope Rings
Let me tell you, these rings aren’t just gear—they’re a statement. The first thing that hooked me wasn’t the precision machining or the six-screw caps—it was the color. Bright red rings! In a world where "tactical" often means you can have any color you want as long as it’s black, Hawkins dared to be bold. And that caught my eye immediately.
For years, I’d heard Hawkins rings praised by competitors and business owners alike, but I never thought much about them. My existing rings worked fine—so why fix what wasn’t broken? But as my needs evolved, I kept hearing their name pop up. From conversations with top competitors to a glowing recommendation from the folks at Arrow Products USA, Hawkins quickly became the gold standard in my mind.
Then came the perfect storm. I was upgrading my setup for the 2025 F-Class season, moving from a Kahles 5X25i DLR to the massive March 8x80. With the switch, I needed a solid one-piece mount that could hold my new scope but also help me with my new setup like running the trigger cam, the SG Pulse on the diving board.. Hawkins Precision checked every box, and I knew these rings had to be part of my build.
When the red rings arrived, I was immediately struck by how perfectly they paired with the March 8x80—the most powerful scope in the world. The combination was stunning, and the rings didn’t just look good; they brought out the best in the setup, both visually and functionally. Together, they formed a system that was as reliable as it was impressive.
Performance on the Range

Switching from a two-piece mount with 2 screws per side to a one-piece mount with three screws per side was a revelation. Installation was smooth as butter, with perfect alignment confirmed by multiple levels—yes, even an electronic one because precision matters. Everything snugged up perfectly, and the integrated bubble level was a lifesaver for those long-range shots where every fraction of a degree counts. The one-piece design added rock-solid stability, and the diving board, game-changer. It let me mount all the extra toys I needed without breaking a sweat. The rings held zero like a champ, even after repeated sessions on the firing line.
Now, my F-Class build might be a little "out there," but these rings are tailor-made for the PRS crowd, rimfire competitors, and anyone who puts their gear through the wringer. They’re strong, versatile, and comfortable—perfect for shooters who like to grab their system by the rings or load up on accessories. And let’s not forget—they just look flat-out awesome.
I’m excited to test these rings throughout the year, and who knows—maybe I’ll do a follow-up at the end of the season. In the meantime, if you want to see the video on these rings, click here.
