Egw Howa Mini Action 1-Piece Picatinny Base 20 Moa

The EGW Howa Mini Action 1-Piece Picatinny Base with 20 MOA is a solid-steel scope mount engineered for shooters who want a rigid, dependable foundation for their optics on Howa Mini action rifles. Unlike two-piece mounts that can shift or bind, a one-piece Picatinny base gives you a single unified rail that won't complicate your setup or introduce variables into your zero. The 20 MOA cant is designed specifically for mid-range and long-range shooting—if you're consistently working targets from 500 to 1,000 yards, this angle lets you stay within your scope's optimal elevation adjustment range without maxing out your turrets.

EGW machines this mount in-house and finishes it with a tumble, sand blast, and Type III hard anodize—the kind of surface treatment that shrugs off harsh field conditions and won't degrade over years of hunting or training. The ambidextrous bevel on both sides means it'll index the same way regardless of how you approach the receiver. Full-length Picatinny cross slots run the entire length of the rail, giving you genuine flexibility to position Picatinny or Weaver-compatible rings exactly where you need them for your scope and cheek weld. Every component—mounting screws, wrench, even the packaging—is USA-made.

Installation is straightforward: EGW specs 20 inch-pounds of torque with a small amount of blue Loctite on the fasteners to keep everything locked. Before you mount, measure your receiver's hole spacing and confirm it matches EGW's published dimensions for your rifle model. Zero at 200 yards with the 20 MOA base in place, and you'll have the adjustment room you need for longer shots while keeping your zero clean and repeatable at shorter ranges.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this mount compatible with my Howa Mini action rifle?

Yes, this mount is designed for Howa Mini action rifles. Before purchasing, measure your receiver's hole spacing and compare it to EGW's published dimensions for your specific model to ensure a proper fit.

What does 20 MOA cant mean, and when should I use it?

The 20 MOA angle is an elevation tilt built into the base. It gives you extra upward adjustment range on your scope, making it ideal if you're shooting consistently from 500 to 1,000 yards. For hunting or shooting at 0–500 yards, a 0 MOA base is usually the better choice. When you install a 20 MOA base, EGW recommends zeroing at 200 yards.

Will my scope rings work with this base?

This is a Picatinny-style rail, so it's compatible with both Picatinny and Weaver-compatible scope rings. The full-length cross slots give you freedom to position your rings wherever you need them on the base.

What do I need to install this mount?

You'll need a wrench (included), a torque wrench set to 20 inch-pounds, and blue Loctite thread compound (sold separately). EGW recommends confirming your receiver's hole spacing matches their specifications before installation.
