Remington 700-Short Action-High Mount-Black W/ 8-40 Screws
The DNZ Remington 700 short action high mount in black is a precision one-piece scope base engineered for shooters who demand rock-solid repeatability. If you're mounting optics on a short-action Remington 700, this high-profile design lifts your scope high enough to clear most aftermarket stocks and tactical rails while keeping everything locked down with 8-40 screws. It's the kind of foundation that separates a quick range session from serious hunting or competition work.
One-piece bases like this eliminate the variables that come with two-piece systems. No gaps between rings, no wandering zero, no guessing whether your scope is truly level to your rifle. The high mount profile gives you breathing room for cheek weld and gun handling, especially if you're running a precision chassis or have upgraded your furniture. Black anodizing means it blends into tactical setups and traditional hunting rigs alike.
DNZ has built a solid reputation for bases that stay put. This mount pairs the simplicity of a single-piece design with the specificity of being cut for Remington 700 short actions, so you get the exact geometry your action needs without over-engineering or compromise. Whether you're dialing in at the range or preparing for a hunt where your zero matters, this base gives you one less thing to doubt.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this mount fit my Remington 700?
This mount is specifically machined for Remington 700 short-action receivers. If your rifle has a short action 700, you're good to go. Long-action or magnum-action 700s require a different base.
What scope rings do I need for this base?
The mount accepts standard 30mm scope rings. Check your ring manufacturer's specs to confirm compatibility with high-profile bases.
Why choose a high-mount base?
High mounts clear modern tactical stocks, chassis systems, and rail attachments while giving you better sight picture and cheek weld. If you're running conventional furniture, a standard base works fine—but high mounts give you more options and clearance.
What screws come with this base?
The mount uses 8-40 screws. Have a quality gunsmith or experienced builder install it, or consult Remington's torque specs for proper tightening.
