Leupold 50004 Standard Base Matte Black for Remington 700

The Leupold 50004 Standard Base provides a rock-solid mounting platform for riflescopes on Remington 700 actions. This precision-machined aluminum base delivers the reliability and accuracy that serious shooters demand from their optics mounting system.

What Makes This Different

Leupold's Standard Base system uses a two-piece design that maintains the natural strength of the receiver while providing optimal scope positioning. Unlike weaver-style bases that can flex under recoil, this base clamps directly to the receiver's integral mounting points. The matte black finish resists glare and corrosion while maintaining a professional appearance that won't compromise stealth in tactical or hunting applications.

Key Features

• Precision-machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction for maximum strength-to-weight ratio
• Two-piece design maintains receiver integrity and allows for optimal scope eye relief adjustment
• Matte black anodized finish provides corrosion resistance and glare reduction
• Direct attachment to Remington 700 receiver mounting points eliminates flex
• Compatible with Leupold PRW and QRW ring systems
• Low-profile design maintains clean rifle lines and reduces snag points
• Reversible rear base accommodates both standard and long-action receivers

This base system performs consistently across temperature extremes and heavy recoil conditions. Law enforcement snipers and precision rifle competitors rely on this mounting solution for maintaining zero through thousands of rounds. The solid aluminum construction absorbs recoil energy without shifting, while the direct receiver attachment eliminates the flex common in rail-mounted systems. Hunters appreciate the low-profile design that won't catch on vegetation during stalks.
