I have not really explored the QD type.For myself,I leave the scope in place.
The thumb screw type mounts come off quick and easy if need be.In my experience,zero repeated pretty darn well.

I just don't see "precision" when I look at the mounting surfaces of the Burris PEPR.

I have used Armalite mounts.They don't give them away. Repeat well.Big thumb nuts on the ejection port side.
I don't have any 45 deg auxiliary sights,but if I wanted that option the Armalite nuts might be an issue.

What has become my "go to" is the Rock River cantilever mount. Its about $65
Clampnuts on the left side,opposite of the ejection port.

Critical surfaces are cleanly machined and hard anodized,not painted like the Burris.
This is not a sleak,sexy mount.Its a bit blocky /bulky in the rings.I got over that when I figured out those rings tend to help protect the fragile ocular and objective bells.
Its a good,economical ring mount,if nothing fancy.
