The EGW Savage 10-16 Round Back Short Action scope base brings modern Picatinny rail mounting to your Savage short-action receiver without the hassle of drilling and tapping. Built from rigid 6061 T6 aluminum and machined to MIL-STD 1913 specifications, this one-piece mount works directly with your factory scope holes and accepts any standard Picatinny or Weaver rings—giving you freedom to dial in eye relief and swap optics to match your hunting or range setup.
If you're running a Savage 10 or 16 and want a clean, modern mounting solution, this base eliminates the guesswork. The precision-machined design keeps things lightweight without sacrificing rigidity, and the cross-slots are gauged to within .002 inches for consistent, repeatable accuracy. You get the screws and Torx wrench in the box—just follow EGW's torque recommendation of 20 inch-lbs with a dab of blue Loctite and you're ready to glass.
The 0 MOA configuration mounts parallel to your receiver, making it the straightforward choice for shooters who want their scope sitting naturally without cant or offset. Whether you're setting up for whitetail, target work, or cross-training at the range, this base provides the mounting stability and flexibility serious rifle owners expect.
