should be nice combo that is a solid mount and a great scope i have a NF on my aics sniper rifle, with that mount your going to need a high set or medium rings since that mount sits pretty low, other that that should be a solid set up IMO

You may want a longer mount like the Sadlak in order to get a wider ring spread to stabilize the scope better.

I have a Arms18 split rail mount and it is solid as ever, unfortunatly due to financiall trouble I had to sell my 10x NightForce but i got over it as having a set of reliable wheels is more important. But on the other hand your set up should be very good, I would recomend a set of high rings and if you like the irons, a set of quick detach rings would be good. Good Shooting
