Author Topic: Savage 12 FV Scope bases and rings??????? (Read 1016 times)

I was told that the new accutrigger rifles take different bases. Does anyone know where I should look for a good set of bases and rings for the Savage? What are you using? Let me know, I am picking up the new rifle tomorrow and need to get it scoped up.

Thanks

Mike

The accutrigger models do take a different set of bases. On the non-accutrigger models, the front base mounted to a curved surface and the rear based mounted to a flat surface. On the accutriggers they're both curved.

Brownells has a wonderful selection of bases, as does MidwayUSA. I'd try them and see what they have.

When I got my bases for my Savage 110 (no accutrigger), I got them from Brownells, and IIRC they listed 1 versions for Savage with and without accutrigger (I got Warnes steel bases).

Weaver also has a reference chart on their page as to what bases fit what rifle. Check that and then take that info over to MidwayUSA and you should be able to find what you want (Weavers are usually available in aluminum or the Grand Slam steel rings, so regradless of how much you want to spend you're covered).

I used Leopulds on both the 7mmSTW and a 338 win mag.
The 338 has the accu trigger and round back.
Got everthing at Midway, they offer both styles.
