Egw Mauser 98 Lg Ring 3-Hole 1-Pc Undrilled Picatinny 20 Moa
The EGW Mauser 98 large ring scope base is a precision-machined mount built for shooters who want a rock-solid foundation without the guesswork. This one-piece Picatinny rail base fits Mauser 98 action rifles and ships undrilled, so you can place it exactly where you need it on your receiver. The 20 MOA elevation built into the base is ideal for long-range hunting or target shooting, giving you extra uphill adjustment before you even dial the turret.
Built from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum, this mount combines rigid construction with thoughtful engineering. The Picatinny rail spacing is gauged to MIL-STD 1913 specs (±.002\"), so it'll accept any modern optic ring standard—Picatinny or Weaver—and give you the flexibility to dial in your exact eye relief without hassle. The three-hole design provides a solid platform while the tactical milled center channel keeps weight to a minimum, something that matters on rifles that see real use in the field.
Setup is straightforward: the base ships with socket head Torx screws and a wrench. EGW recommends torquing the screws to 20 inch pounds and applying a small dab of blue Loctite to prevent creep. If you're building or rebuilding a Mauser 98 and want a mount that won't let you down at distance, this is the kind of foundation that lets you focus on the rifle and the shot.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this mount work with my Mauser 98 rifle?
