Weaver 48062 Top Mount Base for Remington 740/742/760 - Black

The Weaver 48062 Top Mount Base transforms Remington 740, 742, and 760 rifles into precision optics platforms. This machined aluminum base provides a rock-solid foundation for scopes while maintaining the rifle's sleek profile and quick handling characteristics.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic mounting solutions, the Weaver 48062 features rifle-specific machining that matches the exact contours of Remington 740/742/760 receivers. The precision-fit design eliminates movement under recoil while distributing stress evenly across the receiver. Standard Weaver-style cross slots accept rings from multiple manufacturers, providing versatility without compromising strength.
