The Weaver Mounts 48338 Multi-Slot Base delivers precision mounting for Savage AccuTrigger short action rifles with its machined aluminum construction and versatile rail system. This tactical-grade base transforms standard hunting rifles into precision platforms capable of accepting modern optics and accessories.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard two-piece rings, this one-piece base provides a continuous mounting platform that eliminates alignment issues between scope rings. The multi-slot Weaver rail system accepts both Weaver and Picatinny accessories, offering more mounting flexibility than proprietary systems. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with a hard-coat anodized finish, it maintains zero under heavy recoil and extreme temperature changes.
Key Features
- One-piece aluminum construction eliminates ring alignment problems
- Multi-slot Weaver rail accepts both Weaver and Picatinny rings
- Specifically engineered for Savage AccuTrigger short action receivers
- Hard-coat anodized black finish resists corrosion and wear
- Low-profile design maintains proper scope height for cheek weld
- Precision-drilled mounting holes ensure perfect receiver fit
- Steel mounting screws included with thread-locking compound
Field testing demonstrates this base maintains consistent zero through thousands of rounds across various calibers from .223 Remington to .308 Winchester. The rigid aluminum platform transfers recoil energy directly to the receiver, preventing scope movement that causes accuracy degradation. Professional gunsmiths recommend this base for precision rifle builds, competitive shooting applications, and tactical conversions of hunting rifles.
