Egw Traditions Break-Open Muzzleloader 0 Moa

The EGW Traditions Break-Open Muzzleloader scope base is a one-piece Picatinny rail system built for shooters who want to mount modern optics on their break-open muzzleloaders without the hassle of drilling or tapping. Whether you're sighting in a new scope or swapping between optics, this aluminum mount gives you genuine flexibility—adjust eye relief on the fly with any standard Picatinny or Weaver scope rings, and dial in your zero without guesswork.

Built from 6061 T6 aluminum and precision-machined to MIL-STD 1913 specifications (±.002"), the EGW base is lightweight yet rigid where it counts. The milled center channel keeps weight minimal without sacrificing strength. Installation is straightforward: the base drills directly to your Traditions break-open receiver's factory scope mount holes, no gunsmithing required. EGW includes socket head Torx screws and a wrench to get you mounted fast.

Once you're ready to tighten down, EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque with a drop of blue Loctite to keep everything locked in place through recoil and temperature swings. If you run a traditional scope or a modern red dot on your muzzleloader, this rail gives you the mounting platform to do it right.
