DNZ 701TM2 Hunt Masters 1" Medium Scope Mount for Remington 700/721/725, Howa/Mossberg/Weatherby, Black Matte

The DNZ 701TM2 Hunt Masters 1" medium scope mount is a two-piece aluminum mount system built for hunters running Remington 700/721/725, Howa 1500, Mossberg, and Weatherby rifles. This is a clean alternative to the traditional separate-ring-and-base setup that tends to loosen over time. DNZ machined these mounts from solid billet aluminum, keeping weight down to roughly one-third of what a steel combo weighs—a real advantage if you're glassing from a ridge or packing your rifle into backcountry. The medium height positions your scope tube 1.10" above the receiver centerline, splitting the difference between ultra-low and high mounts for most hunting scenarios and optic types.

Installation is straightforward; no special tools required beyond a 7/64" Allen wrench to tighten the 6-48 base screws and 6-40 ring screws. What sets this system apart is the thread count. DNZ incorporated roughly four times more threads than conventional mounts, meaning more contact surface between the rings, base, and receiver for rock-solid security without the wobble that plagues loose bases over a season of hard use. The internal ring and base design also gives you room to adjust eye relief without binding, and the aluminum's natural properties absorb recoil shock and handle temperature swings better than steel at a fraction of the heft.

Made in the USA, the 701TM2 comes in black matte finish and fits long action, short action, and some super short action rifles in both left and right hand configurations. The front base has 0.86" hole spacing, the rear sits at 0.60", and both are custom-fitted to align perfectly with your receiver. If you're upgrading from a wobbly factory setup or building a new rifle and want a dependable, lightweight platform that just works, this is a no-nonsense choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the DNZ 701TM2 fit my Remington 700?

Yes. This mount is specifically designed for Remington 700, 721, and 725 in long action, short action, and some super short action configurations. It also fits Howa 1500, Mossberg, and Weatherby rifles. Check your rifle's action type and handedness (left or right) to ensure compatibility.

What is the ring height, and what scopes will it clear?

The 701TM2 is a medium height mount with 1.10" from the receiver centerline to the scope tube centerline. Medium height accommodates most hunting optics, including variable power scopes and compact red dots, with adequate clearance for conventional turrets and batteries. If you need extra-low or high-rise geometry, DNZ offers other models in their lineup.

Do I need gunsmith tools to install this mount?

No. Installation requires only a 7/64" Allen wrench to tighten the base screws (6-48 X 1/4") and ring screws (6-40 X 5/8"). No drilling, tapping, or specialized tools are needed if your rifle's receiver is undrilled and unthreaded.
