The Weaver Tactical Extended Multi-Slot Picatinny Base is a precision mounting solution built for Remington 700 Short Action rifles and designed for hunters and long-range shooters who demand rock-solid optics placement. This extended base gives you an extra inch of forward length compared to standard mounts, opening up more mounting real estate for your scope and accessories—a genuine advantage if you're working with longer objective bells or need to dial in your eye relief just right.
Machined from 6061 T6 aluminum and finished in matte Type III hard coat anodize, this base handles the recoil and elements without flinching. The integrated recoil lug prevents shifting under fire, while the no-slip Torx screws stay put once you've torqued them down. It accepts both Picatinny and Weaver-style rings, so you're not locked into one ring manufacturer—buy what works for your setup.
The 20 MOA cant built into this version tilts your scope downrange by default, which means you get more elevation adjustment in your turrets for extended-range shooting. If you're running a modern long-range hunting rig or a precision rifle that'll see time past 500 yards, those extra clicks of upward travel add real utility. For shooters running flatter trajectories or shorter-range work, a zero-cant version is also available.
Installation is straightforward—the base indexes directly to your Remington 700 Short Action receiver with nothing left to guesswork. This is the kind of foundational upgrade that pays dividends in repeatability and confidence when you're behind the gun.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this base work with my Remington 700 Short Action?
Yes—this base is engineered specifically for the Remington 700 Short Action receiver and mounts directly with no modification needed.
Can I use this base with Weaver rings, or do I need Picatinny?
This base works with both. The Picatinny slots are compatible with Weaver-style rings, giving you flexibility in ring selection.
What does the 20 MOA cant do for my setup?
The 20 MOA built-in angle tilts your scope downrange, extending your elevation turret travel for longer-range shooting. If you're regularly shooting beyond 500 yards, this gives you more up-travel before running out of adjustment room.
Is the extra inch of length going to make my scope setup too far forward?
The extended length gives you more flexibility in mounting position and eye relief adjustment. Whether it works for your specific scope and ring combination depends on your setup, but the extra inch opens up options rather than limiting them.
