The EGW Remington 783 Long Action scope base gives you a modern Picatinny rail system without the gunsmith work. Built to fit factory scope mount holes on the Remington 783 long action receiver, this one-piece base lets you dial in eye relief quickly and run virtually any Picatinny or Weaver scope rings—giving you real flexibility when choosing optics for hunting, precision rifle work, or the range.
Machined from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum, the EGW base is rigid and lightweight. The full-width Picatinny slots are precision gauged to military spec (MIL-STD 1913) within ±.002 inches, so your rings sit square and secure every time. The 0 MOA design means the base itself adds no cant or elevation bias—you're working with a truly flat foundation for mounting. Installation is straightforward: it uses your Remington 783's existing receiver holes, no drilling or tapping required.
The mount ships with socket head Torx screws and a wrench for assembly. EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque and a drop of blue Loctite to keep everything locked in place under recoil and field use.
