The MDT 102189BLK Picatinny scope rail transforms your Howa 1500 short action rifle into a precision platform with its built-in 20 MOA cant for extended range shooting. This machined aluminum rail system provides the rock-solid mounting foundation serious shooters demand for consistent accuracy.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard zero-cant rails, this MDT rail incorporates a 20 MOA downward slope that maximizes your scope's elevation adjustment range. The precision-machined aluminum construction maintains zero under heavy recoil while the black anodized finish resists corrosion and wear. This rail delivers the mechanical advantage needed for long-range shooting without compromising reliability.
Key Features
- 20 MOA built-in cant extends effective shooting range by maximizing scope elevation
- 11-inch length provides ample mounting space for large objective scopes
- Black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum construction for durability and corrosion resistance
- Precision-machined Picatinny/Weaver rail slots ensure secure ring attachment
- Drop-in installation specifically engineered for Howa 1500 short action receivers
- Maintains consistent zero through multiple mounting and dismounting cycles
- Low-profile design preserves clean rifle lines while adding functionality
This rail system performs across demanding applications from precision rifle competition to long-range hunting. The 20 MOA cant becomes essential when engaging targets beyond 600 yards, where standard rails limit scope adjustment. Weather-sealed anodizing protects against moisture and temperature extremes while maintaining zero retention through thousands of rounds.
