The Badger Ordnance C1 Max 35mm Scope Mount — 1.54" height, 20 MOA — is a purpose-built precision rifle mount engineered for long-range shooters who demand unwavering repeatability, maximum clamping force, and a clean, non-cantilevered profile on their optic setup.
- 1" wide, six-screw ring caps deliver superior optic coverage and clamping force
- 20 MOA built-in cant aids long-range elevation adjustment and extends turret range
- 35mm ring bore accommodates today's most popular large-diameter precision optics
- Low-profile hardened steel clamp foot locks firmly to Picatinny rails under heavy recoil
- Four machined #10 crossbolts with low-pro T20 heads prevent mount shift in harsh conditions
- Compatible with most C1 Modular Mount accessories and attachments for a customizable build
Who This Is For
The Badger Ordnance C1 Max is ideal for competitive precision rifle shooters, PRS competitors, and serious long-range hunters who run large-objective scopes on short-action platforms. If you've struggled to achieve proper eye relief with cantilevered designs, the C1 Max's straight, non-cantilevered layout gives you a clean starting point to dial in your optic position exactly where it needs to be — while the 20 MOA inclination keeps you dialed in at extended distances without burning through your scope's elevation range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size scopes is the C1 Max 35mm mount designed to fit?
The C1 Max is designed for scopes with a 35mm main tube diameter — a common size found on many premium precision rifle optics from brands like Nightforce, Kahles, Schmidt & Bender, and Tangent Theta. Always verify your optic's main tube diameter before purchasing, as 30mm and 34mm tubes will not fit securely in a 35mm ring.
Why choose a 20 MOA mount instead of a flat (0 MOA) mount?
A 20 MOA inclined mount shifts your optic's zero point downward relative to the bore, effectively giving you more usable upward elevation adjustment on your scope's turret. This is especially valuable for long-range shooting (600–1,500+ yards) where a flat mount may leave you running out of elevation before reaching your target. If you regularly shoot past 600 yards or use a cartridge with significant drop, a 20 MOA cant is a practical and widely recommended upgrade.
Is the C1 Max compatible with all C1 Modular Mount accessories?
The C1 Max is compatible with most accessories in the Badger Ordnance C1 Modular Mount lineup, including bubble levels, accessory rings, and night vision bridges. However, Badger Ordnance notes that certain ARC (Arca-Swiss) and ACD (Angle Cosine Device) specific accessories have dedicated C1 Max variants, so confirm compatibility with the specific accessory model before ordering.
