The Weaver 99492 Multi-Slot Base delivers precision scope mounting with built-in 20 MOA cant for extended long-range shooting capabilities. This extended-length base maximizes scope positioning options while maintaining rock-solid zero retention under heavy recoil.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard flat bases, the 99492 incorporates a 20 MOA downward cant that effectively extends your scope's elevation adjustment range by approximately 70 inches at 1000 yards. The extended length design provides additional mounting surface area compared to standard bases, distributing stress more evenly across the receiver. Premium black anodized aluminum construction resists corrosion while maintaining precise tolerances shot after shot.
Key Features
- Built-in 20 MOA cant extends effective range for long-distance shooting
- Extended length design maximizes scope positioning flexibility
- Multi-slot configuration accepts various ring spacing requirements
- Black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum construction for durability
- Precision-machined surfaces ensure consistent scope alignment
- Compatible with short action rifle receivers
- Standard Weaver-style cross-slot pattern
This base excels in precision rifle applications where maximum elevation adjustment is critical. The 20 MOA cant allows shooters to utilize their scope's full elevation range without running out of adjustment at extended distances. Whether zeroed at 100 yards for hunting or 200 yards for competition, the additional elevation capability keeps bullets on target well beyond 800 yards. The extended platform distributes mounting stress across a larger receiver area, crucial for magnum calibers and heavy recoiling cartridges.
