The Evolution Gun Works Savage scope base is a one-piece steel mounting solution designed specifically for Savage 10–16 short-action receivers with round-back profile. If you're running an optic on a Savage bolt gun and want a rock-solid, field-proven foundation, this heavy-duty (HD) base delivers zero headaches and zero guesswork—it uses your rifle's factory scope mount holes, no drilling or tapping required.
Built from 4140 carbon steel and pre-hardened to Rc 35–35, this base is engineered for durability without excess bulk. The HD profile sits 0.100\" lower than standard mounts, which keeps your scope closer to the bore axis for better sight-in performance and reduced parallax shift. That geometry also means you're not mounting an optic sky-high on your receiver, which matters whether you're glassing from a bench, hunting from a blind, or working a long-range course. The full-width Picatinny rail is gauged to MIL-STD 1913 specs (±.002"), so any Picatinny or Weaver scope rings will index cleanly and hold zero through recoil and field use.
The base ships with socket head Torx screws and an included wrench. EGW recommends 20 inch-lbs of torque and a touch of blue Loctite to lock things in. You get precision machining and attention to detail at a price point that won't make you flinch—this is the kind of accessory that works quietly in the background and earns its keep over years of hunting and shooting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this base fit my Savage short-action rifle?
Yes, this EGW base is designed for Savage 10–16 short-action receivers with a round-back profile. It mounts directly to the existing factory scope holes on your receiver, so no gunsmithing is required.
What scope rings work with this mount?
The Picatinny rail accepts both Picatinny and Weaver scope rings. As long as your rings follow one of those two standards, they'll index securely on this base.
How much lower does the HD (heavy-duty) mount sit compared to other EGW mounts?
The HD profile positions your scope 0.100\" lower than EGW's standard-weight mounts. That closer-to-bore-axis mounting improves accuracy and sight picture, especially for long-range work.
What comes in the box?
The base includes socket head Torx screws, a Torx wrench, and installation guidance recommending 20 inch-lbs of torque and blue Loctite for permanent securement.
