The EGW Ruger 10/22 1-Piece Picatinny Base with 30 MOA is a solid upgrade for shooters looking to add optics to their 10/22 without permanent modifications. This one-piece Picatinny rail mounts directly to your 10/22's factory receiver holes—no drilling, tapping, or gunsmithing required. It gives you the flexibility to run any Picatinny or Weaver-compatible scope rings, making it easy to swap optics or dial in the exact eye relief that works for you.
Built from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum, the base is precision-machined and rigid enough to hold zero through extended shooting sessions. The Picatinny slots are gauged to MIL-STD 1913 specifications (±.002"), so you're getting industry-standard accuracy that plays nice with quality rings and accessories. The 30 MOA angle is built into the base itself, giving you extra elevation adjustment for longer-range or high-magnification setups without losing zero.
Installation is straightforward: the base fits the existing holes on your 10/22 receiver, and EGW includes socket head Torx screws and an Allen wrench to get you started. The company recommends 20 inch-lbs of torque and a drop of blue loctite during installation. If you're running a 10/22 at the range, hunting small game, or just want a reliable way to mount glass on America's favorite .22, this base delivers the functionality and simplicity that makes the 10/22 so versatile.
