Weaver 48068 Top Mount Base - Ruger 44 Mag Deerstalker Black

The Weaver 48068 Top Mount Base transforms your Ruger 44 Magnum Deerstalker into a precision optics platform. This machined steel base provides the rock-solid foundation needed for scopes and red dots on Ruger's popular carbine platform.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic mounting solutions, this base is specifically engineered for the Ruger 44 Magnum Deerstalker's unique receiver profile. The precision-machined steel construction handles the substantial recoil forces generated by 44 Magnum cartridges without shifting or loosening. Standard aluminum bases often fail under this cartridge's punishment, making this steel construction essential for maintaining zero.

Key Features

• Machined steel construction handles heavy recoil without zero shift
• Weaver-style rail accepts standard scope rings and mounts
• Factory-drilled and tapped holes ensure perfect receiver fit
• Matte black finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
• Low-profile design maintains iron sight clearance
• Steel screws included for secure installation
• Compatible with Weaver and Picatinny ring systems

Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and extended shooting sessions. The steel base maintains scope alignment through hundreds of rounds, critical for hunters relying on first-shot accuracy at extended ranges. Competition shooters appreciate the repeatable return-to-zero when removing and reinstalling optics.
