Not that particular one -
I have a Warne rear base with peep sight on my 35 WAI. Put it on there when I built the gun 25yrs ago, but I have never used it in the field. Spent a good chunk of money on the Warne bases, Warne QD rings, and NECG band front sight with interchangeable blades. It is an excellent idea in concept, but...
The Leupold M8-6x Heavy Duplex has never moved off zero. That's 25yrs of fair recoil, bouncing around in jeeps and atvs and a lot of temperature transitions. There's a lesson here somewhere; however, I can't decide if it is "buy good optics and mounts" or "the only time you need a backup plan is when you don't have one".
