Midwest Industries 1-Piece Base for Remington 700, Right Hand, Short Action, Black (MI-700-RSA)

The Midwest Industries 1-piece base for Remington 700 short action rifles gives you a rock-solid platform for mounting optics on one of the most popular bolt-action platforms in America. Built to mil-spec 1913 rail standards, this aluminum mount integrates directly into your receiver with zero MOA cant—meaning your scope sits perfectly level without any built-in tilt. Whether you're setting up a precision rifle for competition, hunting, or long-range work, a quality one-piece base eliminates variables and gives you confidence in your zero.

Installation is straightforward: Midwest's one-piece design means fewer parts to manage and a cleaner receiver profile than split-ring or two-piece alternatives. The 6061 aluminum construction gets a Type 3 hard coat anodize for durability against recoil and weather. This fits right-hand actions on short-action Remington 700s, and the package includes everything you need to bolt it down.

Made in the USA, this base represents the kind of no-nonsense accessory that works the same way five years and five thousand rounds from now. It's the foundation your scope system deserves—not flashy, just dependable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this base fit my Remington 700 left-hand action?

No—this is specifically designed for right-hand short-action Remington 700 receivers. Midwest Industries makes separate configurations for left-hand actions.

What scopes and rings will work with a mil-spec 1913 rail base?

Any scope mount or ring system designed for mil-spec Picatinny rails will work with this base. That includes the vast majority of modern optics mounts and rings on the market.

Does this come with everything I need to install it?

Yes—all necessary mounting hardware is included. You'll need a screwdriver or wrench appropriate for your receiver, but the base itself comes complete.

What makes a one-piece base better than a two-piece design?

A one-piece base eliminates the center joint found in two-piece designs, reducing flex and potential for slight movement between the two halves. This contributes to better zero stability and more consistent point of impact, especially important for precision shooting.
