The Leupold 55742 Standard Base delivers rock-solid scope mounting for Savage 10/110 rifles with precision-machined construction that maintains zero shot after shot. This matte black aluminum base transforms your Savage rifle into a precision shooting platform by providing the stable foundation essential for consistent accuracy.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic scope bases that rely on basic manufacturing tolerances, the Leupold 55742 features CNC-machined construction with tight dimensional control for perfect alignment. The proprietary mounting system distributes recoil forces evenly across the receiver, preventing scope shift under heavy recoil. Each base undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure dimensional accuracy within 0.001 inches.
Key Features
- CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction for maximum strength-to-weight ratio
- Matte black anodized finish resists corrosion and eliminates glare
- Precision-engineered specifically for Savage 10/110 action dimensions
- Standard height provides clearance for most bolt handles and ejection ports
- Cross-slot design accepts Leupold and Weaver-style rings
- Includes all necessary mounting hardware and thread-locking compound
- Backed by Leupold's lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects
Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and heavy recoil cycles. The base maintains scope alignment through thousands of rounds in hunting conditions, competition shooting, and tactical applications. The low-profile design clears most bolt configurations while providing adequate ring height for standard objective lenses up to 50mm.
