EGW Guns Picatinny Scope Base Features The EGW Picatinny Scope Base drills into the same factory scope mount holes already on the Savage short action receiver so there is no need for additional drilling or tapping to install it. Precision machined from domestic 6061 T6 extruded aluminum the base is built with Picatinny slot and rail spacing that allows fast simple changes to eye relief along with greater flexibility in scope and ring selection. Full width cross slots are gauged to MIL-STD 1913 specifications to within plus or minus .002 inches ensuring a consistent repeatable fit with any compliant ring. The 0 MOA elevation keeps the base flat and neutral making it a versatile option for a wide variety of optics and shooting distances. The base ships with socket head Torx screws and a wrench for straightforward installation and EGW recommends 20 inch pounds of torque along with a drip of blue Loctite for a secure mount. A matte black anodized finish on the extruded aluminum body resists wear and corrosion while matching most factory rifle finishes. Made in the USA this base is designed to work on short action older model Savage rifles that do not have an AccuTrigger. Savage short action shooters looking for a durable direct mount Picatinny rail will find this EGW base a dependable no-gunsmithing upgrade.
