Warne Mountain Tech 1-Piece Picatinny Base Matte for Bergara Premier Short Action 8-40, 20 MOA

The Warne Mountain Tech 1-Piece Picatinny Base with 20 MOA is engineered for shooters building a precision long-range rifle on the Bergara Premier Short Action in 8-40. This single-piece aluminum base combines the lightweight efficiency of the Mountain Tech line with the 20 MOA elevation built-in—ideal if you're running a longer-range scope and want to maximize your elevation adjustment window without resorting to shims or cants. Warne's reputation for rock-solid performance comes through here without the weight penalty of traditional steel bases.

Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and topped with a mil-spec hardcoat anodized finish, this base handles hard field use without rusting or degrading. The matte aesthetic suits hunters and tactical shooters alike. Black zinc-coated, self-centering T-15 Torx fasteners lock the base down securely and resist corrosion—a thoughtful detail that eliminates one more variable when your rifle matters. Picatinny-compatible, it also accepts Weaver rings and integrates with NATO-STANAG systems, so you have flexibility in how you mount your optic.

If you're zeroing in a Bergara Premier Short Action rifle for serious distance work, this base removes the guesswork. The 20 MOA slope gives you extra elevation travel to reach steel or game at extended range, and the one-piece design delivers the rigidity long-range accuracy demands. Pair it with quality rings, trust Warne's engineering, and focus on the wind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this base compatible with my Bergara Premier Short Action 8-40 rifle?

Yes. This base is engineered specifically for the Bergara Premier Short Action with the 8-40 screw pattern, so it will mount directly without modification.

What does 20 MOA mean, and who needs it?

The 20 MOA slope is pre-angled into the base to give you extra elevation adjustment. It's designed for long-range shooters who need more elevation travel to reach distant targets. If you're hunting or shooting at extended range and want to maximize your scope's adjustment capability, the 20 MOA base is your choice.

Can I use different ring systems with this base?

Yes. The base is Picatinny-compatible and also works with Weaver-style rings, so you have flexibility in selecting rings that fit your setup.

Why aluminum instead of steel?

Aluminum—specifically 7075-T6—delivers the strength and rigidity you need for precision shooting while cutting weight. The mil-spec hardcoat anodized finish provides corrosion and abrasion resistance comparable to steel, so you don't sacrifice durability for lighter carry and faster handling.
