You can adjust the stickiness of the 410 mount. Just slightly peel off the blue sticker. You will see a screw at the center. Then use an allen wrench to loosen the screw a bit. That is all.

actually, if u are really looking for a gd mount for a bigger scope, do drop by samuel's house and check out the giro mount.

wow serious? there are 3 stickers so i guess each controls the stickiness of each axis? how do you get the sticker off? i tried to take it off just now but it doesnt even look or feel like a sticker so i was too scared to use a knife..

I used a knife to peel them carefully because it is too sticky. You will see a screw under each sticker. Slightly adjust the tightness of the screw until you achieve your comfortable level. Don't be afraid. I have abused my 410 mount by taking things apart but it is still working

haha the only thing im worried about is its resale value.. anyway i took the risk and peeled off one sticker. i found the screw but its super tight! i pulled the hex key till the metal was nearly bending and still the screw wouldnt turn.. was yours the same?

I remember that it is quite tight. Make sure that you turn it counterclockwise. You will get the higher resale value due to the hypertune, I guess
