Experience With Quick Release Mounts?

If your picatinny is in one piece and screwed on it is easy to shim the back of the Pic rail to accomplish the same thing as a 20 MOA mount. I find 5-7 layers of coke can aluminum work well. The material is about 0.1 mm thick. This does not stress the scope at all since the shim just tilts the picatinny rail

Skip Larue, American Defense are great, half the cost, and come in just about any configuration you could want. Alternatively, any quality mount should repeat regardless of QD function, as long as your installation technique and torque sequence is consistent.

Interesting. Kinda like the old feeler gauge trick. Then the trick becomes not losing them between mountings, and mounting them the exact same way when remounting the scope...
