This DNZ 2-Piece Scope Mount - Remington .700 is made from high-grade aluminum and weighs only about one-third of what a steel ring base combo does. Made to be tough and durable this mount is easy to install and does not require any special tools.This mount has 4 times the amount of threads as a conventional mount. This system takes away the need to pick a separate ring and base which over time have a tendency to become loose. This is a solid mount for a Remington .700 that will also look great on it.
