The Talley PLM258725 transforms Savage long action rifles into precision platforms with its integrated 20 MOA cant for extended range shooting. This one-piece aluminum rail eliminates the accuracy-robbing flex common in two-piece mounting systems while providing the elevation advantage needed for long-distance engagements.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic rails that simply replace factory bases, the PLM258725 features Talley's precision-machined design with built-in stress relief and exact Savage action contouring. The 20 MOA forward cant provides additional elevation adjustment compared to standard 0 MOA rails, extending effective range by 200-300 yards depending on cartridge and scope combination. Each rail undergoes individual fitting and inspection before leaving Talley's facility.
Key Features
- Integrated 20 MOA cant maximizes long-range elevation adjustment
- One-piece construction eliminates joint flex and maintains zero consistency
- Type III hard anodized finish resists wear and corrosion
- Precision-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum for strength-to-weight ratio
- Direct replacement for factory Savage long action bases
- Standard Picatinny/Weaver rail spacing accommodates all major ring brands
- Recoil lugs positioned for optimal stress distribution
Field testing demonstrates the PLM258725 maintains zero through temperature extremes and heavy recoil cycles. The 20 MOA cant proves particularly valuable for long-range hunting applications where shots beyond 400 yards are common, as well as precision rifle competition where maximum scope adjustment range is critical. The hard anodized finish withstands harsh weather conditions without degradation.
