Author Topic: Leupold MK4 bases? (Read 378 times)

I'm looking for a good solid two piece base to use with MK4 rings.

I tried looking up MK4 on Leupolds site but they don't even list them (odd).

I'm putting a Elite 4200 4-16x on a remy SA with a ultra heavy barrel and need some height here. I tried using the Weaver grand slam's that I had sitting around but they were way too low for this put together.

I have a one piece rail but like more room to get my fingers in there, I haven't been able to check the spec's on the MK4 bases to see if they are higher up so I figured I should ask around. Any tips?

check with Brownells teck support line. If they stock the parts they will usually answer any questions concerning dimensions and it's a free service. I asked the hole spacing on a Weaver Side mount base for a M75 Winchester. the rifle had already been drilled and I just wanted to added a scope back without drilling any more holes. they gave me the spacing dimensions and the base worked just fine!! Give them a call, they're very helpful..

Gunnut,

Good Idea! I haven't used there services (call in) so it's about time I did anyway. I can get both things taken care of at the same time.

Thanks,

Gunnut,

Guntech from bownells recommended I go with replacing the rings with Warne Maximun permant mounts (high).

I ordered them at the same time I ordered the blueing cream to nuetralize the pits.

Thanks for the help.
