The EGW Henry Big Boy 1-Piece Picatinny Base gives you a rock-solid foundation for mounting optics on your lever-action rifle. This single-piece scope mount is purpose-built for Henry Big Boy receivers and arrives set at 0 MOA, eliminating guesswork during installation. Whether you're hunting big game or putting rounds downrange at the range, a quality one-piece base is the first step toward a reliable, repeatable shooting platform.
EGW manufactures this base in-house using CNC machining, then tumbles, sand blasts, and applies Type II hard anodizing for a durable finish that stands up to field use and weather. The full-length Picatinny rail gives you flexibility to position scope rings exactly where you need them, and the center channel lightens the mount while often leaving factory iron sights accessible—a practical feature for lever-gun hunters who value backup sighting options. Before mounting, verify that your Henry receiver's hole spacing matches EGW's published dimensions to ensure proper fit.
Installation is straightforward: apply a small amount of blue threadlocker (sold separately) to the fasteners and torque them to 20 inch-pounds. That's all it takes to have a secure, repeatable optics platform ready for the field or the bench.
