Browning X-Bolt 1-Piece Picatinny-Style 20 MOA Elevated Scope Base
- Firearm Make Fit:
- Browning
The Browning X-Bolt 1-piece Picatinny-style 20 MOA elevated scope base is a solid foundation for mounting optics on your X-Bolt rifle. Built from aircraft-grade alloy, this one-piece design offers rigidity and durability where it counts. The integrated 20 MOA elevation cant is built in—no need for a separate angled base—making it an efficient choice for rifles destined for longer-range work or steep uphill hunting angles.
This scope base uses a Picatinny rail interface, giving you broad compatibility with modern tactical and hunting scope rings. The monolithic construction eliminates the shifting and play that can creep in with two-piece designs, which matters when you're dialing in groups or trusting your zero in the field. If you're building out an X-Bolt for distance shooting, backcountry hunting, or competitive rifle work, this is a no-fuss mounting solution that gets out of the way.
Installation replaces the factory top strap on your X-Bolt receiver and comes with the hardware you need to bolt it down. Just make sure you're pairing it with rings designed for Picatinny-compatible bases—standard Browning rings won't work here. Check your ring specs before ordering if you're unsure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What scope rings will work with this Browning X-Bolt base?
This base uses a Picatinny-style rail, so it's compatible with scope rings designed for Picatinny interfaces. Standard Browning two-piece rings will not work with this base—you'll need rings made for Picatinny rails.
What does the 20 MOA elevation cant mean?
The 20 MOA built-in angle tilts your scope 20 minutes of angle upward. This gives you extra elevation adjustment range in your scope for long-distance shooting without maxing out your turrets. It's useful if you plan to shoot beyond typical hunting distances.
Is this a one-piece or two-piece base?
This is a one-piece design, meaning the entire base is machined as a single unit. One-piece bases are generally stiffer and less likely to shift than two-piece designs.
What hardware is included?
The base comes with the fasteners needed for installation on your Browning X-Bolt receiver. Follow your rifle's manual or the base instructions for proper torque specs during setup.
